1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: No lunchtimers.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,679
Speaker 2: This is the Matt Thomas Show, twelve oh one in

3
00:00:07,919 --> 00:00:08,359
h Town.

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,919
Speaker 3: What's happening to lunch timers? Good afternoon to you, and

5
00:00:11,199 --> 00:00:13,880
welcome to a Thursday edition of The Matt Thomas Show

6
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,079
with Ross. This is Sports Talk seven ninety m.

7
00:00:18,199 --> 00:00:20,399
Speaker 4: I've been struck out in a change up his first time.

8
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,719
Speaker 1: We'll beating up Jorge, who settles under display. But the

9
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,519
Jackson can.

10
00:00:25,399 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 4: Hernandez get to the bag before the.

11
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,559
Speaker 5: Three he does?

12
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 4: On a rooteam play, Aaron Jodge just flubs it in

13
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:36,079
center field and the Dodgers catch a huge break right there. Well,

14
00:00:36,119 --> 00:00:38,280
the Dodgers got to be saying, Okay, here's our.

15
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 6: Chance round their side forty with me.

16
00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 7: Right for away.

17
00:00:44,799 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 4: There's gonna be a tough play, but one the Yankees

18
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:52,119
should make, and the bases are loaded. Two defensive mishaps

19
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:52,799
for New York.

20
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,359
Speaker 3: It's the second Yankee heir of the inning, and they'll

21
00:00:56,439 --> 00:00:57,960
be loaded for Gavin Lux.

22
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,679
Speaker 6: You cannot think you're one out the way.

23
00:01:00,719 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 4: You just have to block down and make pitches with

24
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:10,799
two us nut se Liso, nobody as Dandy Kutin.

25
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:15,599
Speaker 8: Though platrocious defense from the Yankees leading directly to a

26
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,120
Dodger on in the fifth, the Yankee defense absolutely failed

27
00:01:20,239 --> 00:01:21,040
Garret Cole.

28
00:01:20,879 --> 00:01:23,719
Speaker 3: In the fifth. It's now five to one and they're

29
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,120
loaded for Freddy show Holds, yet to really make his

30
00:01:27,359 --> 00:01:31,079
mark in this world series. Hours at foul.

31
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 4: That's Catcher's interference on Austin Wells.

32
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:36,519
Speaker 3: They're pointing to Wells.

33
00:01:37,239 --> 00:01:41,239
Speaker 4: Interference will load the bases and the list of errors

34
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,879
grows for the Yankees.

35
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:45,079
Speaker 5: The Dodgers are strung, going.

36
00:01:48,200 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 6: From a championship, from a proper celebrations.

37
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,359
Speaker 1: Sing to us Dods.

38
00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 3: Series. All they started with the party, all right, then

39
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:19,719
they started riots. Good, have to do it, everybody, Ross.

40
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,039
I do love LA. I don't love LA sports teams.

41
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,960
I do love LA. But when you really love something, Matt,

42
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,840
you burn its buses to the ground. Yeah, and you

43
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,719
raid Nike stores and just go in there and chart

44
00:02:33,759 --> 00:02:39,360
to steel as much gear as possible. Yes, Oh man,

45
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,639
I felt dirty just the whole week. I gotta be

46
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,719
brutally honest with you. I mean, giving you any run

47
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,520
towards the Dodger just makeshift.

48
00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 9: Gross.

49
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 3: It was the lesser of the two evils. Though we

50
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,560
chose that we're on the right side of history. Oh,

51
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,159
I don't think there was any doubt in our mind

52
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:02,680
we had to root for the Dodgers. Yeah, it was

53
00:03:02,759 --> 00:03:05,599
mostly rooting against the Yankees, of course. And Brian cash

54
00:03:06,159 --> 00:03:10,039
Brian Cashman, sock get Brian Cashman. Blame this one on

55
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,360
the Astros. By the way, I am getting inundated with

56
00:03:13,439 --> 00:03:16,120
tweets ROSSI, We've got to call Garrett Cole in a

57
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:24,680
few minutes. They're asking for him. Okay, because when's you

58
00:03:24,759 --> 00:03:26,680
think or you are? You are your people out to

59
00:03:26,719 --> 00:03:30,639
his people. Let's try next segment. Let's just let's just

60
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,199
uhn rand' dolling. Yeah, we won't even like set him up.

61
00:03:35,199 --> 00:03:38,400
We'll just like just call him as he's available. We'll

62
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,479
try a lot of folks did not think he was

63
00:03:40,599 --> 00:03:42,599
very polite to me yesterday when he called the show.

64
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,879
Thus she deserved the lack of defense that. Uh by

65
00:03:46,919 --> 00:03:49,400
the way, does Anthony Rizzo give two craps about being

66
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,680
in the World Series? Why do you say that?

67
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:52,719
Speaker 5: Well?

68
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:53,879
Speaker 3: His defense was horrific.

69
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 10: Ye.

70
00:03:54,159 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 3: Well yeah, and I know he's got some hand injurws

71
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,000
or whatever, but he has no home runs since like

72
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,000
May or whatever it was. I mean, I was like, man,

73
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,360
do you even care about playing baseball right now. I

74
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,560
mean he was washed before they signed him this year,

75
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:11,759
but that's true, that's true. I will say this, And

76
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,120
we were kind of you and I were kind of

77
00:04:13,159 --> 00:04:16,120
talking about whether or not America was gonna catch onto

78
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:20,079
the Yankees Dodger series. I'm gonna probably guess and Ross

79
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,959
and tell you the numbers for these games are gonna

80
00:04:22,959 --> 00:04:26,759
be outstanding because there are just two rabid fan bases,

81
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,319
but collectively a lot of America just hates them both too.

82
00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:32,839
So you add that together and it means people are

83
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,240
gonna at least watch. Yeah. I want to have you

84
00:04:36,519 --> 00:04:38,160
noticed it all or paid attention to what the Raid

85
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,000
of the World Series ratings have been. I mean the

86
00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:42,000
fact that it was basically they got up three to

87
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,319
oh probably didn't help. Now, I will say this, I

88
00:04:45,439 --> 00:04:49,720
think I saw a report that it beat the Monday

89
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:57,160
night game beat the Pittsburgh Steelers Giants game. Really, I

90
00:04:57,319 --> 00:04:59,199
don't know that to be accurate. I thought I saw

91
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,399
something I can remember Twitter. You have to kind of

92
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,879
double check out. And also, you know people, it's like

93
00:05:04,959 --> 00:05:08,839
the game like this this demo and that demo, and

94
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,480
like it's oh okay, yeah they won eighteen to nineteen

95
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,439
females like what okay, sure, yeah, all right, So I

96
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:18,560
need a ruling from you ROSSI on something. It doesn't

97
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,040
involve me, but it involves a member of my Rockets

98
00:05:21,079 --> 00:05:26,079
broadcast team traveling crew. Okay, Adrian Travelia has been a

99
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,600
long time Spanish voice of the Rocket Oh yeah, huge

100
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,560
Dodgers fan. Huge Dodger, I mean huge Dodgers fan. I

101
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,319
told him last week, this is the only time I'll

102
00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:40,800
ever say this, Go Dodgers. Okay. So he flew with

103
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:42,680
the team on the team plane and I flew uped

104
00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:48,680
by myself commercially, and he took care of my perdiem money,

105
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,000
and I said, hey, can I come get my per

106
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,920
diem money because I know that you're watching the game.

107
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,120
And this is when the game was five to nothing.

108
00:05:56,519 --> 00:05:59,000
Mm hmm. He says, bro, I've taken a sleeping pill.

109
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,920
I'm going to bed. Oh wow, How So I said

110
00:06:02,959 --> 00:06:04,439
that's fine, I mean, I get them the next day.

111
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,319
But I didn't really believe him. So then I'm on

112
00:06:07,399 --> 00:06:09,319
a group thread of text with some other people in

113
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,120
the traveling party. Want our director of operations is a

114
00:06:12,199 --> 00:06:15,120
huge and Yankees fan, So we were blank talking to

115
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,800
each other. It was me, Craig Hilow is our equipment

116
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,720
manager or operations person, and Adrian. And Adrian doesn't know

117
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,680
any of this is going on the comeback because he

118
00:06:26,879 --> 00:06:30,959
was asleep, so he wasn't lying. He was like, you

119
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:35,160
know what, five nil, I'm out of here. I want

120
00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:37,439
to really give him lots of crap all day long.

121
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:38,560
I think I should be able.

122
00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:38,959
Speaker 5: To do that, right.

123
00:06:39,079 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 3: The win probability got up to ninety five point eight percent.

124
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:48,759
Rock The Astros have lost World Series games before. Did

125
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,160
we ever fall asleep? Did we ever go gets over goodnight?

126
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:52,879
Speaker 9: No?

127
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 3: I think I watched every single out of probably every

128
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,439
single game, no matter what, even in just having one

129
00:06:59,439 --> 00:07:02,959
on the background. But you know what, you're you're up three.

130
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,920
He got three wins in the bag. It's not like

131
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:05,800
it was Game seven.

132
00:07:05,879 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 11: I guess.

133
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm trying to give him some leeway

134
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,279
here somehow, but it seems like poor format. I don't think.

135
00:07:13,079 --> 00:07:16,680
I don't think he deserves leeway. Yeah, I could see that.

136
00:07:16,839 --> 00:07:19,360
I mean, you are one of the great comebacks in

137
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,839
World Series history. Yeah, I missed it because you gave up.

138
00:07:23,519 --> 00:07:23,759
Speaker 10: Yeah?

139
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: Did he have a morning appointment? Was a series. What

140
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,879
did he have to do in the morning? Nothing? Okay,

141
00:07:30,959 --> 00:07:36,360
he doesn't leave his room. We got to dinner occasionally,

142
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,519
not we I mean, like everybody in the group, like

143
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,839
the whole traveling party. We go out to dinner. We

144
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600
maybe go see a movie. Yeah, yeah, we gotta throw

145
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,199
a fly, you know what, You're right, we gotta throw

146
00:07:45,199 --> 00:07:50,000
a flag on this. So I'm just I was stunned.

147
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,480
He says, I'm going to bed, bro and I'm like,

148
00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:58,560
going to bed nothing. I mean, it's a world freaking series.

149
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,120
Your team's in it. I just could believe it. Yeah,

150
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:07,079
all right, go Dodgers. We don't have to say it anymore.

151
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,639
Please don't. We're done. We're absolutely finished with him, thank god.

152
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:13,800
All right, well, Rossie, we have a super busy show today.

153
00:08:13,839 --> 00:08:16,279
I mean, this is a show that might get us

154
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:20,600
on Marconi. Okay, explain, all right, we got Anthony Beck's

155
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,360
going to join us today on the show. Okay, and

156
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,800
you're like, who's Anthony Beck? I am former tight end

157
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,879
of the Jets way back in the day. He's the

158
00:08:27,959 --> 00:08:31,160
coach of the Saint Louis BattleHawks of the XFL, but

159
00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:34,279
he's also the Jets radio analyst Okay, great. Well it's

160
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,720
funny because because Connor's like, why are we having the

161
00:08:36,759 --> 00:08:38,879
BattleHawks coach on, I'm like, because he does the color

162
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:43,840
for the Jets. First of all, why not? It was like, duh,

163
00:08:44,039 --> 00:08:46,039
who doesn't want to talk XFL in the middle of

164
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,759
the NFL season. Come on, now, Connor, you'd be better

165
00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:51,320
than that. That's cool. Uh, So we'll have him join

166
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:52,840
us coming up at the bottom of the arty, give

167

171
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,440
of the University of Houston, you know, kind of see

172
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,600
what life is like on the job after moving from

173
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,039
New Mexico previously at LSU, and just the thought of

174
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,600
trying to navigate these murky waters that is NIL and

175
00:09:14,759 --> 00:09:18,080
transfer portal and yeah, Big twelve. And I just got

176
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,360
the announcement. I got the press release, Matt. He will

177
00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:23,679
also be formally announcing your huge NIL donation. So that's

178
00:09:23,799 --> 00:09:28,080
that's exciting news. Got a bad connection here in Dallas,

179
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,120
and here a word you said there, Thank you for that.

180
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,519
Whatever you said, it was probably rude. And then we

181
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,360
had the Rotten five a day of two thirty looking

182
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,039
forward to that. Yeah, and Helly Aaron I believe it

183
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,519
or not today? So I mean, this is a radio program,

184
00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:44,679
is it, Helly? Are not Dodgers believe it or not?

185
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 10: Dodger?

186
00:09:45,159 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 3: Ooh you feel like a dirty Hord, don't you? Oh

187
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:49,240
it doesn't feel good?

188
00:09:50,279 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 12: No?

189
00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:51,279

00:09:59,159 --> 00:09:59,279
Speaker 6: Now?

193
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:00,879
Speaker 3: Again, what I I wanted some people to do is

194
00:10:00,919 --> 00:10:02,720
I want the people to call in today and say, man,

195
00:10:02,759 --> 00:10:05,320
I told you I wasn't gonna watch it, but you did.

196
00:10:06,519 --> 00:10:09,039
You had to have watched it was there was serious

197
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:12,320
drama for a lot of this series. I think a

198
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,279
lot of people were tuned out.

199
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 5: In Houston.

200
00:10:14,159 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 3: We're like that. No matter if it was yeah, you know,

201
00:10:16,519 --> 00:10:19,600
forget what I say. Yeah, if it was like a

202
00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:23,159
Giants and Guardians, we wouldn't be watching it, didn't matter

203
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,360
if not Houston. That's how we roll in this town.

204
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,240
That's what we in this community. We only roll for

205
00:10:28,279 --> 00:10:31,000
the Houston teams. And then sometimes don't even roll for

206
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,240
the Houston teams. I mean it is what it is. Mm, no, cool,

207

210
00:10:44,919 --> 00:10:48,120
dirty rooting for the Dodgers or did you feel better

211
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,679
by just seeing the Yankees absolutely employed? By the way,

212
00:10:51,799 --> 00:10:56,240

Speaker 13: Yeah, that was a tough one.

265
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,919
Speaker 17: We got up five zero and I really thought we

266
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,120
were gonna win, and at the end of the day

267
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,519
it didn't work out, mostly because of Aaron Judge and

268
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:49,440
Anthony Rizzo.

269
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 13: I mean, my goodness, how bad was their defense.

270
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 17: But it's a team game, and unfortunately we lost and

271
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,120
we'll have to go back to the drawing board.

272
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 13: And well, I'm going to sleep on a pile of tonight.

273
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 3: Matt. So you don't sound too upset?

274
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 5: Is that?

275
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 3: Is that a fair indication of your emotions right now?

276
00:14:08,039 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 17: I'm sorry I can't hear you over my three hundred

277
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:11,679
and thirty million dollars.

278
00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 3: Matt, Can you repeat that so you're not too upset?

279
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,879
Speaker 13: No, I look, at the.

280
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,679
Speaker 17: End of the day, I want to win games, and

281
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,279
I'm here to win a World Series. But also, the

282
00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:27,240
new Bugatti I just bought wasn't cheap and I'm able

283
00:14:27,279 --> 00:14:30,039
to afford that, and I can live in New York City.

284
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,679
I don't have to be in the hell hole that

285
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,679
is over there in Houston and so uh not the

286
00:14:34,759 --> 00:14:37,080
way I wanted it to go. But I'm happy to

287
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:38,960
have all the money that I have and live a

288
00:14:39,039 --> 00:14:41,399
great life with my wife Amy, and I can't wait

289
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,320

00:14:46,039 --> 00:14:47,120
knew you were gonna say that.

292
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 3: Come on, Matt, Can I ask your so freaking rude?

293
00:14:53,559 --> 00:14:56,120
Can I ask what you can? I ask your dressing

294
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:56,720
up as.

295
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 13: Yes, I'm going to be Woody and she's going to

296
00:15:00,159 --> 00:15:00,679

297
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:09,039
Speaker 3: Light Year, okay, And will you will you stay in

298
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:10,879
Midtown Manhattan or are you gonna go.

299
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 13: We're gonna go into infinity and beyond tonight. If you

300
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,000
know what I mean.

301
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,039
Speaker 3: Man, you don't sound like you're upset at all that

302
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,399
you lost a five nothing lead.

303
00:15:19,679 --> 00:15:22,519
Speaker 17: You know, when this business meant as you know you

304
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,120
you probably put it together terrible shows week after week,

305
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,759
and you have to have a short memory and you

306
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,639
got to be ready to go back there and focus.

307
00:15:29,759 --> 00:15:32,519
So I'm looking forward to twenty twenty four, spending a

308
00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:35,600
lot of money and laying with buzz light year tonight.

309
00:15:36,399 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 3: All right, Well, I just wanted to let you know

310
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,399
the city Houston. I mean, I gotta be brutally honest

311
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:42,960
with you, Gret, because I feel like our relationship is

312
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,519
built that way. We were not rooting for you, We

313
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,519
were hoping that your squad was going to lose. And

314
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,000
it was yeah, I know, and it was actually really.

315
00:15:49,919 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 13: Why I gave my heart and soul to that city.

316
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you you put the Scott Boris hat on

317
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,200
right away, you, oh.

318
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,919
Speaker 17: I with the freaking hat. It's my luck had Scott

319
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,879
Boris made me a pile of money. I love Scott Boris.

320
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 13: He was the best man at my wedding.

321
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 3: I hope he can speak at my funeral.

322
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:10,879
Speaker 13: I love Scott Boris. I'm loyal to Scott Boris, and

323
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,000
that was my luck he had.

324
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 17: And actually I forgot it yesterday and that's why I

325
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,120
gave up all those runs, and that's why Anthony Rizzo

326
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,320
didn't cover first base.

327
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 3: All right, last question, what's your relationship now with Anthony Rizzo?

328
00:16:22,279 --> 00:16:22,639
Like today?

329
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,639
Speaker 13: I hope to never talk to him again.

330
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 3: He cost me a world series. All right, Garrett, thank

331
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,960
you very much, enjoy your offseason, and we look forward

332
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:36,720
to uh seeing you in your buzz light year and

333
00:16:37,279 --> 00:16:38,600
woody costume later tonight.

334
00:16:39,639 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 17: Whatever Anthony Rizzo sucks, Trevor Bauer sucks and Houston.

335
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 3: Sucks, suck it, Garrett colin a mobile joining us here

336
00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:57,279
on the Matt Thomas Show of Ross. He really doesn't

337
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,759
like Trevor Bauer none, Like why is taking shots at

338
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:03,200
Houston too? We loved him with but we opened arms

339
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,720
with him, you know what. I think he was trying

340
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,279
to play it cool, but he was really angry. Yeah,

341
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,640
he's not happy with Anthony Rizzo. No, he's not. And

342
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:14,559
he kept on blaming Rizzo.

343
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:15,440
Speaker 5: Was it his fault?

344
00:17:16,559 --> 00:17:16,599
Speaker 12: No?

345
00:17:16,799 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 3: I think that people were saying that Rizzo kind of

346
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,759
lollygagged it over there, and he didn't put once he

347
00:17:21,799 --> 00:17:24,240
grabbed the ball, he didn't necessarily hustle to the bag

348
00:17:24,519 --> 00:17:26,599
as the kids would say. Yeah, but he can hardly move.

349
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,039
I don't know if he would have gotten over there.

350
00:17:28,839 --> 00:17:32,480
He is slow and expensive and can't hit. Yes, Other

351
00:17:32,519 --> 00:17:37,359
than that, he's very valuable, fantastic guess. I gotta be

352
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,359
honest with you, and I don't mean to be myopic

353
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,839
when it comes to Houston, But the Yankees lost yesterday

354
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,680
Ross in a very Houston way, right, Does that make sense? Know? No,

355
00:17:48,759 --> 00:17:53,519
Houston has two championships recently with the Astros. Don't go there.

356
00:17:53,839 --> 00:17:56,559
We don't have to hear that. It's not Choke City

357
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,240
against the Suns in like nineteen ninety three or whatever.

358
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,839
Don't bring up the olders Buffalo games, which you're trying

359
00:18:02,839 --> 00:18:06,880
to tell me too. Huh Oh, come on, man, distant

360
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,400
memories Dave Smith blowing the lead in the sixth Series

361
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,319
against the Mets, or Dame Lillard's catch or Chris Paul's

362
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:20,240
ham straw. Oh god, you know what it was? Ross?

363
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:28,519
That was a Houstonian loss. Stop. It was man, I

364
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,039
put out one hundred high schoolers and they catch that

365
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:37,160
freaking fly ball from from Aaron Judd that Aaron Judge dropped. Yeah,

366
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,960
it was I mean one for the I mean, help

367
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,160
me out super routine, right. I mean I was in

368
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,440
a plane, so I didn't see every single but super

369
00:18:45,519 --> 00:18:49,680
routine extremely should have been caught a thousand times out

370
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:58,000
of a thousand. Oh, Lorie, congratulations the Dodgers, thanks for

371
00:18:58,079 --> 00:19:01,240
destroying your city right away. Ross, it took him like

372
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,640
an hour to destroy La correct. I mean, my god,

373
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,160
they had like two hundred people at a Nike store

374
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,480
going in there and just stealing gear. Was was it

375
00:19:10,519 --> 00:19:12,880
two hundred people were they stealing? Dodgers scared? What were

376
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,319
they doing? Well, I don't know what they were doing,

377
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,200
but go look up Nike destruction in Los Angeles. You'll

on Sports Talk seven and joining us now is the

406
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,559
head football coach of the Saint Louis BattleHawks. You're saying, well, Matt,

407
00:20:51,559 --> 00:20:54,079
why are we talking XFL right now? Will? We will?

408
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,160
But we're also going to talk about the New York

409
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,279
Jets tonight's Texans opponent, and the man who calls the

410
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,559
games with Bob was choosing on the Jets network as

411
00:21:02,599 --> 00:21:05,279
Anthony Beck, who was a former tight end, did some

412
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,240
games against for the Houston ESPN for the Cougars years

413
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,920
ago with American Athletic Conference and joints us here on

414
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,759
Sports Talk Semi Anthony, it's Matt, thanks for joining us.

415
00:21:13,799 --> 00:21:16,279
How did you celebrate National tight Ends Day last week?

416
00:21:18,279 --> 00:21:21,599
Speaker 18: You know, it's nice because you know a lot of

417
00:21:21,759 --> 00:21:25,480
my you know, constituents in the past, my wife and

418
00:21:25,759 --> 00:21:27,799
some people that know me. They post some pictures of

419
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,720
me and stuff like that make me feel good since

420
00:21:29,759 --> 00:21:35,279
it's been hell, what now almost twenty thirteen years since

421
00:21:35,319 --> 00:21:39,200
I put on the uniforms. So it's good man. I celebrated. Obviously,

422
00:21:39,319 --> 00:21:42,240
I called the game, so I was able to watch football.

423
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,319
But it was good to see some throwback West Virginia

424
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,319
picks online and a couple of Jet picks online, so

425
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:49,079
it was good stuff.

426
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 3: Who is the greatest tight end in NFL history?

427
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 18: Greatest tight end in NFL history, I'll go with Gronk.

428
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,319
I just think you know, his run was was pretty

429
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,359
impressive and he did everything. I mean, you know, we

430
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,759
can pull clips of him block and a guy out

431
00:22:07,799 --> 00:22:09,759
of bounds into.

432
00:22:09,079 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 3: The bleachers, right, So I like complete tight ends.

433
00:22:12,279 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 18: You know, I got a lot of appreciation for the

434
00:22:14,079 --> 00:22:16,440
for the tight ends that play now in their skill set,

435
00:22:16,519 --> 00:22:19,559
but Gronk was one of a kind and he did

436
00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:20,920
everything great for.

437
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 3: Sure, for sure. Anthony joining us here, Anthony Beck with

438
00:22:23,319 --> 00:22:26,920
his on Sports Talk seven and I now, obviously the

439
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,680
Jets get a lot of national attention with all the

440
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,559
games and being in the market, and we focus obviously

441
00:22:33,599 --> 00:22:35,960
on the on the Houston sports side of things. I

442
00:22:36,079 --> 00:22:39,920
am perplexed, Anthony that the Jets have gone off to

443
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,920
the start they have so far at two and six,

444
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,599
and you've seen every game you've been in, every one

445
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,440
of them. Is there a way to wrap it up

446
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,119
in a nice package to explain what has happened? Because

447
00:22:51,279 --> 00:22:54,440
you've got great running backs, you've got skill position receivers.

448
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,000
I don't think Aaron's career is over with your defense

449
00:22:58,039 --> 00:22:59,680
has got one of the best corners in the game.

450
00:22:59,759 --> 00:23:03,039
And sos Garner helped me to the Houston audience what

451
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,680
has gone wrong this year? In a nutshell?

452
00:23:05,839 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 18: Yeah, you know, I just think from a week to

453
00:23:08,079 --> 00:23:12,359
week's standpoint, it's been just a lack of execution by

454
00:23:12,759 --> 00:23:17,000
multiple players taking their turns that have really, you know,

455
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,319
set this team back. And I think as the weeks

456
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,480
have gone on, you know, I think Aaron's played decent.

457
00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:25,640
I just he's not the same Aaron Rodgers. But I

458
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,720
don't think, at least I didn't. I didn't want the

459
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,799
Aaron Rodgers of you know, twenty eighteen. I wanted a

460
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,160
guy that can run a system, get the ball where

461
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,480
it needs to go, and what the playmakers this team

462
00:23:37,559 --> 00:23:41,160
has go make some plays. You know, I think we're

463
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,079
second in the NFL and drop balls. That was an

464
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,440
issue early on. Then there was some penalties in some games.

465
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,200
There wasn't a lot of penalties, but some of those

466
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,599
penalties were strategic moments in the game where it costs us.

467
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,039
The special teams hasn't been great obviously, It's documented Greg

468
00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,319
Greg's airlines struggles throughout the year, and then defensively of late,

469
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,720
it's it's not been at its best, you know, especially

470
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,519
in the fact when you let the Patriots drive down

471
00:24:06,559 --> 00:24:09,000
the field, and I think a couple of things come

472
00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:09,160
with that.

473
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you have a decimated's safety situation.

474
00:24:13,799 --> 00:24:15,759
Speaker 18: And also, you know your head coach is now your

475
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,839
was your full time defensive coordinator, and me being a

476
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,279
head coach, you know, I want to sit in on

477
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,640
offensive meetings and be a part of that game plan

478
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,400
for the entire time that we put the run install

479
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,720
on the play installs. But I might be in there

480
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:31,119
twenty minutes and all of a sudden I get pulled

481
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,000
out because I get to do other head coaching duties,

482
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,599
So I'm not there for the hale install.

483
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 3: So you know, I can imagine late nights those things.

484
00:24:38,519 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 18: I mean, ideally, Jeff Ulbrick is a head coach in

485
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,119
this league somewhere at some time, but in the circumstances

486
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,680
that it's in, it's not an easy proposition.

487
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,079
Speaker 3: So combine all those things.

488
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 18: I just think, to me, it's it's a lack of

489
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,039
execution all the way through. And Aaron's kind of pressing

490
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,039
right now. I think he's trying to do maybe a

491
00:24:56,079 --> 00:24:59,279
little too much, And and you know, with the changes

492
00:24:59,319 --> 00:25:01,920
and everything, I think, you know, everybody's trying to get

493
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,119
it right. But I think simply just going out and

494
00:25:04,319 --> 00:25:07,599
just playing good ball is enough for this team to

495
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,480
be good. To be one of the better teams in

496
00:25:09,519 --> 00:25:12,039
the league. But until they show that, you know, they're

497
00:25:12,079 --> 00:25:13,759
just a collection of really good players right now.

498
00:25:14,559 --> 00:25:18,839
Speaker 3: So you mentioned it's a different Aaron Rodgers in terms

499
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:23,359
of is it types of plays, is it getting rid

500
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,559
of the football second too late? Maybe getting to the

501
00:25:25,599 --> 00:25:27,279
lone of scrimmage a little bit, and tell me some

502
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,240
difference is if no one had seen him as a

503
00:25:30,319 --> 00:25:32,559
jet this year as compared to maybe the last year

504
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:33,440
or so in Green Bay.

505
00:25:36,079 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean he's doing things at times where you're like, man,

506
00:25:39,799 --> 00:25:43,480
that's the legit Hall of Fame quarterback. And then there's

507
00:25:43,559 --> 00:25:47,160
times where maybe he doesn't quite trust the protection but

508
00:25:47,279 --> 00:25:50,799
it's there, or he trusts the protection and it's not there.

509
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,799
So now it's like now, you know, getting into a rhythm.

510
00:25:53,839 --> 00:25:55,680
I mean, the best game he played all year was

511
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,119
against the Patriots in the in the first game they played,

512
00:25:58,599 --> 00:26:01,359
I mean, creating plays on them, getting out of the pocket,

513
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:02,319
doing all these things.

514
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 3: You know, he's a little nicked up in those areas.

515
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:05,720
He's not that guy.

516
00:26:05,799 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 18: He can't do it week to week that in that moment,

517
00:26:08,279 --> 00:26:09,960
that looked like a guy that was trending in the

518
00:26:10,039 --> 00:26:13,640
right direction. Unfortunately, that's not a guy that can consistently

519
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,880
do that at this point in his career. So winning

520
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,400
from the pocket obviously has got to be elite. And

521
00:26:18,759 --> 00:26:22,559
for him, you know, being able to have some type

522
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:25,119
of run game around him consistently that that has not

523
00:26:25,319 --> 00:26:28,440
been there of late, and you know, for him to

524
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,440
go out there and do it all now and to

525
00:26:30,559 --> 00:26:33,799
the other slip side is you know, he's not quite hitting.

526
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,599
You know, I'm a layup guy, right, like you know,

527
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,599
if you're a really good quarterback, you're a little older, right,

528
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,880
but you got I mean you could see do everything.

529
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,759
Like to me, the Jets for the last ten years

530
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:47,640
haven't had a quarterback to just hit the layups right

531
00:26:47,759 --> 00:26:50,319
like Zach Wilson tried to, but he couldn't complete him

532
00:26:50,319 --> 00:26:51,359
because he was just so inaccurate.

533
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 12: Right.

534
00:26:51,599 --> 00:26:53,839
Speaker 3: So for like for me, it's like sometimes you.

535
00:26:53,839 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 18: See him pull the trigger back on a couple circumstances,

536
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,880
like just get the ball to the guys and let

537
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,920
them do their things, move the sticks, move the chains,

538
00:27:00,759 --> 00:27:02,680
and just execute at that level. I just think that

539
00:27:02,839 --> 00:27:05,599
consistency right now has to be the thought process the

540
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,839
plays and whatever it's been. I actually think that you know,

541
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,319
from from a standpoint of the outfitse this is his system.

542
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,920
I mean, this is the him and Hackett work together,

543
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,839
and Todd Downing is running the saint. So I actually

544
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,599
think Todd Downing's called some you know, two good games

545
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,119
since he's been here. But again, it's it's just this

546
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,480
this execution situation and at the end of the day, man,

547
00:27:24,519 --> 00:27:26,160
players got to go out there and play. Your best

548
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,720
player's got to show up consistently, and they're not doing that.

549
00:27:29,799 --> 00:27:31,200
It's not just Aaron. I mean, they got a lot

550
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,759
of good players. You just talked about it. They got

551
00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:35,119
a lot of good players on this roster. But it

552
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,759
may be the look guard one time, the right tackle

553
00:27:37,799 --> 00:27:39,960
one time, might be a receiver, it might be the

554
00:27:40,079 --> 00:27:41,720
running back, it might be the tight end. But you

555
00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:44,319
cannot have that. And it starts from the top down.

556
00:27:44,519 --> 00:27:46,079
You know, it's got to be handled, it's got to

557
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,160
be dealt with. Guys have to take accountability, and every

558
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,839
team's dealing with it. But you know, at some point

559
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,599
the Jets have to get over the hamp and play

560
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,240
a good game completely, and they haven't done that really

561
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,680
since they're they're win versus the Patriots.

562
00:27:58,839 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 3: What five five weeks ago. Yeah, a couple more minutes

563
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,279
here with Anthony Beckkells the color and analysis on the

564
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:10,440
Jets Radio network. The Texans are sending a wolful offensive

565
00:28:10,519 --> 00:28:15,799
line to East Rutherford tonight. Tell me about the defensive

566
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,000
pressure of the front four, really the front seven. Do

567
00:28:18,079 --> 00:28:19,960
you think that's a way the Jets can get to

568
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,799
c J stride is by maybe using one of their strengths.

569
00:28:23,839 --> 00:28:26,799
Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean, listen, you know CJ's obviously missing a

570
00:28:26,839 --> 00:28:30,799
lot of his key receiving options, and I think just

571
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,079
watching him the last couple of weeks is he may

572
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:34,799
be holding all the ball a little bit too long,

573
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,400
waiting for some of those other targets to kind of

574
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,519
get open. I think for me it gets a little simple.

575
00:28:40,559 --> 00:28:42,839
I think everything has to flow through Joe Mixon in

576
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,519
this game for them to have the success that they want.

577
00:28:46,559 --> 00:28:48,240
You know, I think their line has been okay, but

578
00:28:48,279 --> 00:28:51,359
they are struggling obviously left guard, you know, Green seems

579
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,119
to be just from what I'm watching, a bit of

580
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:54,119
a weak link right now.

581
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 3: And then you know, some other injuries have caused them

582
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,400
maybe to have a setback at that. But I think CJ.

583
00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:02,720
Strata is a knock down, do you have enough weapons

584
00:29:02,759 --> 00:29:03,400
to get done?

585
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:03,599
Speaker 5: Sure.

586
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,359
Speaker 18: I mean, you know, you look at a guy like

587
00:29:06,519 --> 00:29:08,279
you know, Tank Dell, you know, you just don't have

588
00:29:08,319 --> 00:29:09,920
a receiver, one guy you can lean on.

589
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,319
Speaker 3: I think Dalton Schultz, I think becomes a big priority.

590
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:14,079
Speaker 18: And if you look at the history of the Jets

591
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,000
defense last couple here, the tight ends been kind of

592
00:29:16,039 --> 00:29:20,319
a place where they've had some issues, you know, containing

593
00:29:20,359 --> 00:29:22,319
a tight end. And mean, I think he's really talented.

594
00:29:22,359 --> 00:29:23,960
I was really high on him when he was a

595
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,119
free agent coming out of Dallas. He felt like he

596
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,680
could be, you know, a game changing tight end, and

597
00:29:28,839 --> 00:29:31,920
that's what he was in Dallas. So I think CJ.

598
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,319
Shaut just got to just looking at from their perspective

599
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,759
is just kind of change what the priorities are. I

600
00:29:38,839 --> 00:29:40,200
think he's so good and then I watch him on

601
00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:43,079
and they so talented. He's just so smart with the football.

602
00:29:43,599 --> 00:29:45,599
I mean, you guys are fortunate, you know, to have

603
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,400
a guy like that. And I mean I'm just kind

604
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,759
of doing like a little bit of a study because

605
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,039
this big talk right now is about you know, why

606
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,240
these quarterbacks coming out or you know, have so many struggles,

607
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,000
And I think it comes down a couple of things, like,

608
00:29:56,359 --> 00:29:57,960
you know, how many games did they play and start

609
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:58,359
in college?

610
00:29:58,359 --> 00:29:59,279
Speaker 3: You know how much experience do.

611
00:29:59,319 --> 00:30:01,759
Speaker 18: They have, and they're complete And when you look at

612
00:30:01,839 --> 00:30:03,880
him and just his year, I don't think anybody had

613
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,039
more than thirty games starting out of college.

614
00:30:06,079 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 3: But he was kind of the enigma of that draft

615
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:09,440
class in twenty twenty three.

616
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 18: But it was almost a seventy percent pass completion at

617
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:17,160
the quarterback position, So you know, I just think, you know,

618
00:30:17,279 --> 00:30:19,640
he's another guy you can can use his legs a

619
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,400
little bit as well. I mean a lot of man

620
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,240
and man defense the Jets are going to play. I mean,

621
00:30:23,319 --> 00:30:26,319
you've seen the quarterbacks a week. The week they've getting

622
00:30:26,359 --> 00:30:28,160
out of their lanes. You know, maybe you take off

623
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,240
from run instead of holding onto that a little quicker,

624
00:30:30,279 --> 00:30:31,000
so there.

625
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,039
Speaker 3: Will be a pass rush tonight.

626
00:30:32,119 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 18: It is good Will McDonald is a good player and

627
00:30:34,839 --> 00:30:37,160
hasan Reddick didn't show up in the staff bouts last week,

628
00:30:37,559 --> 00:30:40,599
but he did open up the ability for Quinn Williams

629
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,480
to have a big game last week.

630
00:30:42,559 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 3: So that that's what happens when you add the other

631
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:44,799
pass rusher.

632
00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:48,079
Speaker 18: Now Quinn Williams has a little less to have occupied

633
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,880
to him on certain situations, and he showed up. So

634
00:30:51,359 --> 00:30:54,000
when you're talking about quarterbacks and young quarterbacks, probably one

635
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,680
place you don't want to have your pressure.

636
00:30:55,559 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 3: Is in your face, and you're gonna be facing one

637
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,519
of the better ones in the NFL. Quinn Williams. We

638
00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:03,400
mentioned at the very top of you are also a

639
00:31:03,519 --> 00:31:08,559
coach in the XFL. We have seen broadcasters in baseball

640
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,880
and basketball leave the booth to get onto the field.

641
00:31:11,319 --> 00:31:13,039
Is the NFL part of your dream or are you

642
00:31:13,119 --> 00:31:15,720
kind of like in having the flexibility of kind of

643
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:20,400
doing both. Yeah, I mean, right now, my priority is coaching,

644
00:31:21,039 --> 00:31:21,920
you know, anytime you can.

645
00:31:22,119 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 18: I mean, the job that I took on with the

646
00:31:23,799 --> 00:31:27,640
Jets probably you know, it's been a twenty five years

647
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,960
since they had somebody different, so you know, at.

648
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,079
Speaker 3: Some point I'll probably get fired.

649
00:31:31,119 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 18: Right now, I'll just do this for the rest of

650
00:31:32,519 --> 00:31:35,119
my life, So whenever that happens, I got something to

651
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:35,759
fall back home.

652
00:31:35,839 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 3: But yeah, you know, my goal is to.

653
00:31:37,759 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 18: Continue to be a head coach in the UFL's which

654
00:31:40,359 --> 00:31:42,880
was formerly the XFL. And yeah, I just keep doing that.

655
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,400
I mean, you know, continue to win, continue to build

656
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,200
my resume. I'm trying to expedite that process. I do

657
00:31:49,279 --> 00:31:52,279
want to be a head coach in college football, and

658
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,440
of course the NFL is well. I think college is

659
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,720
a path for me that makes sense now where I

660
00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,160
can get there the quickest and you know, work on

661
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,799
those things moving forward. I've had some opportunities to kind

662
00:32:02,839 --> 00:32:05,720
of slide into the NFL at a positional standpoint, and

663
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,119
I just think right now, continue to be a head coach,

664
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,880
continue to be a leader of men. I'm a CEO guy,

665
00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:17,400
a guy that oversees extremely detailed excels and messaging, knows

666
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,000
how to handle people very were and and tries to

667
00:32:20,079 --> 00:32:23,039
really be elite in the in the situational part of

668
00:32:23,119 --> 00:32:25,359
the game because I don't call the play, so I

669
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,240
have to be elite in that in that department. And

670
00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:29,920
I learned every week from college coaches at the NFL

671
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,759
head coaches and what not to do.

672
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,839
Speaker 3: So, you know, being a former player.

673
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 18: Being in those circumstances as a player, now as a coach,

674
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,119
you know, those things are a premium for me. So

675
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,279
just continuing to grow and be at my best and

676
00:32:42,359 --> 00:32:44,000
then you know, like I said, I love to make

677
00:32:44,039 --> 00:32:46,480
the transition to be a head coach in college when

678
00:32:46,519 --> 00:32:48,880
that time comes, maybe when my son graduates to that

679
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,920
probably be better to watching him play at Iowa State.

680
00:32:51,359 --> 00:32:53,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure. And we saw the Cyclones there certainly

681
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,559
a very good team in the Big twelve. I got

682
00:32:55,599 --> 00:32:57,680
thirty seconds, leven, Thank you so much for your valuable

683
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,400
time here. That a lot of us here in Houston

684
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,599
think this could be a potential trap game. Short week

685
00:33:02,799 --> 00:33:05,920
long travel up to New York. Beat up offensive line,

686
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,240
defensive players are an issue. If the Jets win tonight,

687
00:33:09,799 --> 00:33:11,799
what happens for New York for that to happen.

688
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 18: Yeah, they have balanced offensively. I mean, yeah, I don't

689
00:33:16,759 --> 00:33:19,400
think it's a trap game. The Jets are a good team.

690
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,839
They're just record, isn't there If when they show up

691
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,160
and it turns on and the leg goes, I mean,

692
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,880
they're gonna be a hard team to deal with. So,

693
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,519
you know, I don't know if that's gonna happen tonight.

694
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,880
It's a wait and see. But Brees all brailing out

695
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,160
are problems in the backfield. You know, they are offensive line,

696
00:33:34,359 --> 00:33:37,440
they're you know, outside of Elijah Vera Tucker being out,

697
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,400
they're they're pretty good, you know physically up front. They

698
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,079
just haven't been able to maintain and get to the

699
00:33:42,119 --> 00:33:45,319
second level. And you know their receivers are dangerous. You

700
00:33:45,359 --> 00:33:49,119
know Devonte Adams does he take a big leap from

701
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,200
from two games that playing and and and Garrett Wilson

702
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,480
obviously is a guy that can you know, beat anybody

703
00:33:54,559 --> 00:33:55,000
one on one.

704
00:33:55,079 --> 00:33:58,079
Speaker 3: So a lot of matchups. We got to block your

705
00:33:58,119 --> 00:33:58,519
edge guys.

706
00:33:58,559 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 18: If we don't block the edge guys, then it's going

707
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:02,920
to be a problem that I for obviously, a quarterback

708
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,839
like Aaron Rodgers who isn't moving around as well as

709
00:34:04,839 --> 00:34:06,799
he wants to, So the ball's going to come out

710
00:34:06,799 --> 00:34:08,440
of his hands pretty quick if that's the case. So

711
00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:11,639
if they get some time, can have some balance and

712
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,239
take advantage of some of those edge rushers and what

713
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,880
their strengths are, then this is a dangerous game for

714
00:34:17,119 --> 00:34:19,199
Houston or anybody they're playing. But until they show it,

715
00:34:19,559 --> 00:34:20,800
that ultimately is going to be the goal.

716
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 3: Continued success to you and your family. Thank you, Anthony

717
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,320
for the time. We really really appreciate it. You got it, Matt,

718
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:27,840
thanks to having me on, but you got it. That's

719
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,159
Anthony Beck joining us the radio announcer part of the

720
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,800

a player for Iowa State, one of the premier teams

723
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,239
in the Big twelve Conference. A lot of stuff to

724
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,920
get to on that. If you want to recap in

725
00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:45,760
that Anthony had to say about the Jets, Look, he's

726
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,079
it comes down to execution, just like it is every

727
00:34:48,079 --> 00:34:50,119
week in the NFL. But a good perspective from New

rehearsal Walker. You're listening to Matt Thomas when the Sports

Talk seven to ninety. Another take Ross that you'll disagree

752
00:36:07,079 --> 00:36:15,079
with you ready? No, maybe this song is better than

753
00:36:15,119 --> 00:36:22,599
the movie. I liked this song better when it was

754
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:24,840
I Want a New Drug by Huey Lewis in the News.

755
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,039
Oh you are you going to lyrics ripoff or a

756
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,440
vocal melodic ripoff?

757
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 6: Yeah?

758
00:36:31,039 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 3: Melodic rip off? Okay, just they sued in one, right,

759
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,159
I believe they did.

760
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 5: Yes.

761
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 3: Ray Parker has another song called Jack and Jill, which

762
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:48,679
is outstanding, outstanding. Yes, maybe I'm selling a little bit

763
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,679
too much. Okay, I'll take your word for it. By

764
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,639
the way, There is a new documentary coming out in

765
00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:01,239
late November. I believe god, somebody sent this to me.

766
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,039
Who's sent it to you? I think I know what

767
00:37:05,079 --> 00:37:09,119
you're talking about. Go ahead. The documentary will be coming

768
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,440
out on November the twenty ninth. It will be called

769
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Music Box yacht Rock. According to the network This is HBO.

770
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,639
The film chronicles the emergence and popularity of the West

771
00:37:24,679 --> 00:37:29,639
Coast soft pop soft rock pop culture, epitomized by musical

772
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,639
artists such as Christopher Cross, Michael McDonald, Kenny log and

773
00:37:32,679 --> 00:37:35,079
Steely Dan and Toto oh Man Ross. We have to

774
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:37,079
have a watch party for that, don't we I'm good,

775
00:37:38,079 --> 00:37:44,559
Come on. It was retroactively dubbed yacht rock in two

776
00:37:44,599 --> 00:37:48,760
thousand and five by a parody website series. So it's

777
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:54,480
a made up genre, but it's still good. It's not good.

778
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,599
It's excellent, all right, you'd like it, that's fine, but

779
00:37:57,639 --> 00:38:01,320
it's a made up genre either way. Okay, we have

780
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,760
the clock starting for the five day watch for Alex

781
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:09,280
Bregman negotiating period. I am finding it, frankly amusing no

782
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,719
announcement yet that people are like, come on, jive Crane,

783
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:18,159
come on, Dana Brown, make this happen right now. You

784
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:23,440
gotta do it. Hey, everybody, Hello, Hello. They've had the

785
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,280
entire damn season to make this happen, the season before

786
00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:28,960
and the season before. Yeah, I mean, bro, I mean

787
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,280
come on, they didn't go. Let's wait until the end

788
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,760
of the World Series to have a serious conversation with Bregmant.

789
00:38:34,079 --> 00:38:36,199
Give me a break, y'all. Gotta realize, come on, put

790
00:38:36,199 --> 00:38:43,039
two and two together here. The amount of people on

791
00:38:43,199 --> 00:38:45,880
social media going, this is the time to step it up,

792
00:38:46,119 --> 00:38:49,599
step it up. Jim's done a pretty good job of

793
00:38:49,599 --> 00:38:52,760
steping up with a lot of stuff. But Jim holds true. Now,

794
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,880
whether you agree with it or not is a different issue,

795
00:38:55,760 --> 00:39:00,639
but Jim Crane holds to a certain formula for financial

796
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,559
compensation for his players, the ones that he wants to

797
00:39:04,639 --> 00:39:08,960
lock up. It's good, very very good money, but it's

798
00:39:09,079 --> 00:39:14,599
no mega long deals. And sometimes the player, or in

799
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,320
this case, many players look for the mega deal mm hmm.

800
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,480
And Alex Pregnant will have this opportunity to go try

801
00:39:21,519 --> 00:39:23,800
to find that mega deal. Doesn't mean he's gonna find it,

802
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,320
but certainly he will want to go search it out.

803
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,599
And if I'm Alex I would. I don't blame him

804
00:39:30,599 --> 00:39:33,079
for that. Now, just because you go out there and

805
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:37,119
search doesn't mean you're gonna find something better. But as

806
00:39:37,159 --> 00:39:39,280
we've talked about many times, sports arevey, it only takes

807
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,119
one team to go. You know what you are worth

808
00:39:41,159 --> 00:39:44,320
the seventh year? You are worth the thirty one point

809
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,679
five million dollars per year or whatever. Yeah, well, we'll

810
00:39:47,679 --> 00:39:49,320
take a hit on the back end, pay you when

811
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,760
we know you're not gonna be worth it when you're

812
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,360
thirty seven, to buy what's left of your prime. That's

813
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:54,119
what it would be doing.

814
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:54,679
Speaker 6: Yeah.

815
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go to before the top of the hour.

816
00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,719
Talk to Larry and Galveston on seven ninety Highlarry, Hey, Matt,

817
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:02,159
how are you doing good?

818
00:40:03,559 --> 00:40:04,039
Speaker 5: You know, I.

819
00:40:05,599 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 19: Personally I'm with Jim Crane on forget about going on

820
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:18,760
the really long time deals. If Fregman had any sense,

821
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:26,000
he would sit down and think about where he has

822
00:40:26,159 --> 00:40:30,119
been and where he is going. He is one of

823
00:40:30,199 --> 00:40:35,679
the best defensive third basements in baseball without a doubt.

824
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:41,119
Has his bat tailed off some, yes it has, okay,

825
00:40:41,639 --> 00:40:44,920
but who doesn't you know, and.

826
00:40:47,119 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 3: You know jose L Tub.

827
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:54,079
Speaker 19: Wants him on the team. We have the best second

828
00:40:54,159 --> 00:41:00,199
base third base combination in baseball right now with out

829
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,360
of doubt, and he.

830
00:41:03,599 --> 00:41:04,159
Speaker 6: Just needs to.

831
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 19: He just hates to say, Okay, Astros, what if y'all

832
00:41:10,039 --> 00:41:14,840
want to give me six and or one ninety?

833
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:17,679
Speaker 14: I'm good with that.

834
00:41:19,119 --> 00:41:21,559
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know. Thanks Larry for the phone call. Again,

835
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,639
nobody has ever announced from the astros what's been out there,

836
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,559
and we'll talk more about that to start the second

837
00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:29,599
hour of The Mat Thomas Show. Plus, we've got with

838
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,079
Ross obviously, and we've got Doctor Rhodo one thirty. We've

839
00:41:33,119 --> 00:41:35,639
got the Ross Rotten five at two thirty, and believe

840
00:41:35,639 --> 00:41:37,320
it or not, today at two fifty, lots of get

841
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,960
two plus any Nowony as I thought of, director of

842
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,440
the University of Houston, joined us more on the breakman situation.

843
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,760
The question I want to ask Well and Ross and

844
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,039
I will throw this out, is is there a number?

845
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:51,440
Is there a length of term in Jim Crane's mind

846
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,920
right now that he says if I text him and

847
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,840
say I'll give you this and this, this is as

848
00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:58,880
far as I go? Or is there any wiggle room?

849
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,239
We'll discuss more of that. Sorry. The second arrow of

850
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,280
The Matt Thomas Show. With Ross here from Dallas on

851
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,960
Sports Talk SEBNINTI.

852
00:42:06,679 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: Lunchtimers, this is the Matt Thomas Show.

853
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:12,519
Speaker 3: A lot to get to. At one o two on

854
00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:15,280
The Matt Thomas Show with Ross Sports Talk SEBNINTI, I'm

855
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,079
hearing Dallas for tonight's game between the Rockets and the

856
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,599
Dallas Mavericks. Ross, I wish I was your house hit.

857
00:42:22,599 --> 00:42:24,639
You'd have like you have the double TV bit goings

858
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,440
you got, You'll have the Rockets on, You'll have the

859
00:42:26,519 --> 00:42:30,239
Texans on, right, come on over. Yeah, I'll be busy. Okay.

860
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 2: Uh.

861
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,639
Speaker 3: It's been life changing and I don't know how I

862
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,719
lived without it. Multiple TV screens in the living room.

863
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,079
I mean every night. For example, last night there was

864
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,840
a World Series and then there was there was NBA

865
00:42:43,039 --> 00:42:47,719
on ESPN, YEP, watching the Celtics get blown out. It's

866
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,960
just just about every single night you can put on

867
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,599
a couple of things, especially when NBA season gets humming around.

868
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:53,159
Speaker 6: Yeah.

869
00:42:53,199 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 3: By the way, NBA opening night numbers television not good

870
00:42:57,199 --> 00:43:01,280
for the league. Really. Yeah, they were about down fourteen

871
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,960
percent from a year. At fourteen percent, that's significant.

872
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:04,639
Speaker 6: Yeah.

873
00:43:05,159 --> 00:43:07,800
Speaker 3: The reality is this, and it fell on deaf ears

874
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:09,400
when I asked the commissioner a couple of years ago.

875
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,639
I still think it's a terrible, terrible mistake to start

876
00:43:12,679 --> 00:43:15,920
the season so early. I just do yeah, and they well,

877
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,519
the first game was a complete blowout, and I guess

878
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,360
people weren't tuning in to watch Lebron James m make

879
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,480
history with Bronni James. Yeah, it was so Wenby's first

880
00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:26,840
game as a Spur was the game that led last year.

881
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,880
So ah, interesting, I guess that got hmm. But ratings

882
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,199
for the NBA, I think down as a whole. There's

883
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,000
a lot of people talking about the state of the league.

884
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:36,880
It's just too much. It's two three point driven. What

885
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:41,599
do you think old man Bob Ryan was like, the

886
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,039
three point line is the worst thing that has ever

887
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,519
happened in the history since I've been alive covering the NBA,

888
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:51,039
which has been forever. Because he's ancient, you know, the

889
00:43:51,159 --> 00:43:53,480
reality is ross. I don't think I can answer this

890
00:43:53,639 --> 00:43:56,960
because I love all parts of the league. I love

891
00:43:57,039 --> 00:44:00,320
professional basketball, so maybe I'm not the person that would

892
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,519
answer it. I think the biggest problem the league has, frankly,

893
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,880
is it just gets swallowed up with everything else going on.

894
00:44:09,079 --> 00:44:14,280
You have college football, pro football. You have the World Series. Now, granted,

895
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,679
the World Series is not gonna necessarily get you, but

896
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:18,159
if you get a big market in there, it's going

897
00:44:18,199 --> 00:44:21,199
to take away some people. I still believe you should

898
00:44:21,199 --> 00:44:24,239
start in mid December, but that just nobody seems to

899
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:26,239
believe me because they don't want the rating. They don't

900
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:28,639
want the ratings hit in the summertime for the NBA Finals.

901
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,559
I think the league, yeah, I think the league is

902
00:44:31,599 --> 00:44:34,199
in a great state in terms of the talent, like

903
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,119
you mentioned Wimby and Jannis and jokicch and I mean

904
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:40,599
Embiid and hopefully Jalen Green or you know the like.

905
00:44:40,679 --> 00:44:45,000
The individual talents I think are great, but I think

906
00:44:45,679 --> 00:44:49,280
the macro the style of play where one team hits

907
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:51,320
their three pointers, the other team doesn't, and that's the

908
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,760
team that wins and loses. And it seems kind of

909
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,079
like that, how is it every night? The state of

910
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,840
play is not in a good place, even though the

911
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,760
talent I think is a in a good time. Yes,

912
00:45:01,159 --> 00:45:05,199
and I do believe that guys resting and sitting out, Yes, yes,

913
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,440
hurt will hurt the league. Not right now because it's

914
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,000
early in the season, but it's going to hurt on

915
00:45:09,079 --> 00:45:11,880
a you know, a regular old January night where Lebron says,

916
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,519
I don't want to play against the Bucks. Is I'm

917
00:45:13,559 --> 00:45:15,679
not feeling good or or I'm not trying to throw Lebron,

918
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,119
but just any of it. I mean, Joel Embiid is

919
00:45:18,159 --> 00:45:21,000
a star in this league and he's not playing because

920
00:45:21,079 --> 00:45:25,280
he's taking it easy, and I, you know, I got

921
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,920
a problem. The playing tournament gets a little bit of

922
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:29,760
a boost this time of year, but I don't think

923
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,079
it's enough to justify the overall fact that you've got

924
00:45:32,119 --> 00:45:34,800
a lot of people not that's playing in the in

925
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:38,559
season tournament you get you know, you you If you

926
00:45:38,639 --> 00:45:40,599
don't put the stars out there on a regular basis,

927
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,760
you're going to be in a real tough spot. And

928
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:45,920
I think part of that is too, is what kind

929
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,079
of has went into a ring culture in the NBA.

930
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,000
So we only talk about rings and Michael Jordan's six rings,

931
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,440
six rings, six rings, and that's all we talk about.

932
00:45:53,519 --> 00:45:56,280
And it's like, well, if we're only going to prioritize rings,

933
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,880
and that's all that matters at the at the bottom line,

934
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:02,039
when we talk about the NBA, rather than players being

935
00:46:02,159 --> 00:46:04,719
great every day on a night in, night out basis.

936
00:46:05,039 --> 00:46:07,559
You're you're gonna have the conglomeration of super teams. You're

937
00:46:07,599 --> 00:46:10,360
gonna have the devaluation of the regular season where everybody's

938
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:13,000
gonna try to rest and say, yeah, Tuesday Night against

939
00:46:13,079 --> 00:46:15,599
the the the Chicago Bulls doesn't matter. I'm trying to

940
00:46:15,639 --> 00:46:17,159
be ready for the playoff because I want to win.

941
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:18,639
Rings rings, rings, rings, rings.

942
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 6: Yep.

943
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 3: And one more thing on this, you're also adding a

944
00:46:21,519 --> 00:46:25,480
huge layer of uh, what is it non linear broadcasting?

945
00:46:25,559 --> 00:46:28,559
Is that he would say, uh, the Amazon Prime and

946
00:46:28,679 --> 00:46:31,039
the Peacock on that kind of thing. Yeah, I mean

947
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,000
you're gonna you're gonna take a group of people that

948
00:46:34,039 --> 00:46:35,639
are gonna be like, you know what, I forgot the

949
00:46:35,679 --> 00:46:40,000
games are on mm hm. So I think, yeah, the

950
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,519
the well, even the NFL is getting hit by that.

951
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,320
That ESPN plus Monday night football game. It was like

952
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,960
the fewest people they'd had watching a Monday night football game.

953
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,920
I think it was in years and years and years.

954
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:51,360
I'll go ahead and find that I can find the number.

955
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,280
But but I but I don't want to hear anybody

956
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,239
in any of these leagues complaining about it, because they're

957
00:46:55,239 --> 00:46:58,000
taking the checks. Yes, they you know, when you take

958
00:46:58,079 --> 00:47:01,960
a check from Amazon Prime or Netflix or who else

959
00:47:03,079 --> 00:47:06,360
Hulu was to broadcast games, you're going to lose audience.

960
00:47:06,599 --> 00:47:11,119
So just either just take the check and stop complaining

961
00:47:11,119 --> 00:47:14,480
about it. Yeah, Chargers Cardinals lowest watch game. It was

962
00:47:14,519 --> 00:47:17,760
on ESPN Plus. Right, first time an NFL game drew

963
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,599
fewer than two million viewers since two thousand and eight.

964
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,199
Mm hmmm mm hmmm, all right, seven one three two

965
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,199
one two five seven. And we were talking about Alex

966
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:33,519
Pregman a minute ago in your gut ROSSI Yes, if

967
00:47:33,559 --> 00:47:37,400
we were to look at a notepad that Jim has

968
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,599
an epper right corner of his desk, or he's got

969
00:47:40,639 --> 00:47:44,639
a notepad on his phone, is there a number in

970
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,280
a length of years that is on that phone right

971
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,360
now that he's like, this is whar I'm this is

972
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,639
as far as I'm going to go? Or is there

973
00:47:52,679 --> 00:47:55,840
a huge part of me that says he's gonna let

974
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,079
the market dictate it, or is there a part of

975
00:47:58,119 --> 00:48:01,840
me that says they've just decided that they need to

976
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,320
move on from Alex and try something else because maybe

977
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:09,000
the best days of Alex Bregman are behind him. I

978
00:48:09,519 --> 00:48:12,119
think there is a number and I think you're gonna

979
00:48:12,119 --> 00:48:20,480
think it's ridiculous. Go ahead, five one, twenty five. Now

980
00:48:20,559 --> 00:48:23,239
you and I have a lunch bet or a post

981
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,719
show bet. This is me guessing, by the way, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

982
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,440
six years deal he gets none of us wins. If

983
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:32,440
he gets seven or more, you win. If he gets

984
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,760
five or less, I win. Yeah, you're hoping the way

985
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:37,159
you win. I don't think he's gonna sign a five

986
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:38,719
year deal. But if he gets like one to three

987
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,679
year deal with opt outs, and that's how you win,

988
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:46,440
I think, yeah, yeah, I do believe there is a number.

989
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:51,880
I don't believe that the decline of Bregman, at least offensively,

990
00:48:52,079 --> 00:48:54,719
is enough for them to say I just don't want

991
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,199
to bring him back, especially because there isn't a guy

992
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,679
in the wings that's ready to step right away. They

993
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,920
obviously ross when Carlos Korea left. They thought enough of

994
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:06,880
Jeremy Pennon to say, this is a guy we can

995
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:11,239
fill in at a much smaller value. I don't think

996
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,960
that guy with the astros is ready for twenty five.

997
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,920
It might be ready for twenty six. Do you piecemil

998
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,000
a twenty five and go get a fridge on a

999
00:49:19,079 --> 00:49:20,800
one or two year deal. You could certainly do that

1000
00:49:21,639 --> 00:49:27,360
at a lesser amount. I'm just telling you, Rossie, if

1001
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,920
they would have thought that, if in Jim's Crane's Jim

1002
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,199
Crane's mind, I can't leave, let Alex Bergman leave, He's

1003
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,039
gonna be an aster for life, this deal would have

1004
00:49:38,119 --> 00:49:42,480
been done by spring training of last year. I agree

1005
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,360
with you, he's gonna hit the market. He loves Houston,

1006
00:49:45,599 --> 00:49:49,119
but you've got two World Series championships. There's no reason

1007
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:52,719
to stay here, nothing to chase, nothing to I mean,

1008
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:54,760
he's one of the all time great astros. If he

1009
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,320
never plays another game, it's time to go get paid

1010
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,440
and it's time to go get the maximum. And I'm

1011
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:01,360
not faulting him at all for that. And I just

1012
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:05,119
don't think if you remember when Carl's Correa what he

1013
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,559
he he I love Carlos Korea. Remember he was said publicly,

1014
00:50:08,599 --> 00:50:10,360
He's like, yeah, they offered, yeah, they offered me five

1015
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,519
one sixty and I wasn't gonna take you like he

1016
00:50:12,679 --> 00:50:15,400
just wasn't gonna take it. And so five one sixty

1017
00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,239
to him was a slap in the face because Jim

1018
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:18,920
Crane doesn't want to go over five. So that's why

1019
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,039
I guess. I'm guessing five one twenty five maybe maximum

1020
00:50:22,119 --> 00:50:25,079
five one fifty somewhere in that neighborhood, because I mean,

1021
00:50:25,119 --> 00:50:28,000
the economics of baseball have gone up. But I think

1022
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:30,199
he's gonna stay hard line. If he did it with

1023
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,400
Carlos Karrey, he's gonna do it with Alex Bregman, and

1024
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,960
Alex Bregman's gonna look elsewhere for an employment. It's sweet tough.

1025
00:50:37,039 --> 00:50:39,280
It's gonna be a very bitter pill to swallow for

1026
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:40,719
a lot of people. But I would say Ross, it

1027
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:45,039
isn't a consensus, It is not a there And I

1028
00:50:45,119 --> 00:50:47,239
know that jose Al Twove came out right before the

1029
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,199
end of the season. It was like he has got

1030
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,639
to stay here. Yes, he was doing that because he

1031
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,599
loves his teammate and they will be friends for the

1032
00:50:55,679 --> 00:50:57,800
rest of their life. Regardless of whether or not they

1033
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:02,039
put a glove onto work. They they generally love each other.

1034
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,280
And he doesn't want a part of the great past

1035
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:09,800
to go away. But everything comes full circle and you

1036
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,599
lose people and you you know, and people go out

1037
00:51:12,639 --> 00:51:14,639
their directions or try all the things. This is not

1038
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:18,760
out of the ordinary with any walk of life. But

1039
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:23,719
I don't. I can guarantee you that jose Al Tubay

1040
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:25,400
did not say the things that he wanted to say,

1041
00:51:25,519 --> 00:51:28,320
not on one different occasion, but two different times. And

1042
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:30,559
all of a sudden, the light bulb went off in

1043
00:51:30,639 --> 00:51:33,199
Jim Crane's office and said, well, jose Al Tuobay says,

1044
00:51:33,199 --> 00:51:36,519
I gotta do it. I gotta do it. Yeah, probably not,

1045
00:51:37,159 --> 00:51:39,199
and it's unfortunate. It's going to be a big loss.

1046
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:41,159
It's gonna be a loss in the field and a

1047
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,000
loss with you know what Taylor Scott and others have

1048
00:51:43,079 --> 00:51:44,960
talked about, the game planning, with the pictures and being

1049
00:51:45,039 --> 00:51:46,960
involved in mound visits and all that type of stuff.

1050
00:51:47,119 --> 00:51:50,440
It's absolutely there are so many intangibles that you just

1051
00:51:50,559 --> 00:51:53,599
don't see on paper that Alex Bregman brings to the table,

1052
00:51:53,679 --> 00:51:57,519
and we, unfortunately and hopefully we're wrong about this. Hopefully

1053
00:51:58,079 --> 00:52:00,519
we got to start preparing for the of that not

1054
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:02,880

good football team, just have not been able to put

1103
00:55:11,559 --> 00:55:15,159
some of the good old days. I'm totally blame lockdown

1104
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:18,199
Gordy for this because he would actually care about our

1105
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,000
radio station and care about this show. Hey, he cares

1106
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,519
about our station. He's just gotta look. You see a

1107
00:55:23,639 --> 00:55:25,639
deal with Stan Northfleets takes five days a week. And

1108
00:55:25,679 --> 00:55:26,599
see how you all know that?

1109
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:27,880
Speaker 6: Come on, you know what you know?

1110
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:31,320
Speaker 3: I I apologize, I retract that that bottom of the

1111
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:35,159
previous statement. But man, he's doing shows in Jackson, and

1112
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:38,960
he's got he's gotta be on in Lafayette and Mobile, Monroe,

1113
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:43,400
He's on in Uh, He's on in uh Mobile Alabama,

1114
00:55:43,519 --> 00:55:47,800
Doe thing. He's hanging out and doing Pensacola Sports later.

1115
00:55:48,079 --> 00:55:50,440
I mean, come on, Gordy, give us a parody once

1116
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:52,960
in a while. I think if they make the playoffs,

1117
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:54,960
we have to hold him to it. For every play

1118
00:55:55,119 --> 00:55:57,440
every week there in the playoffs. We need a parody. Yeah, yeah,

1119
00:55:57,599 --> 00:56:00,559
parody for Yes, he doesn't know this ship, but he's

1120
00:56:00,679 --> 00:56:03,400
he's not required by state law to do that, all right.

1153
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:34,280
I just hope that the owners and the top organization

1154
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:39,159
of Astros would finally come to conclusion that if they

1155
00:58:39,239 --> 00:58:43,239
want a consistent team year after year, you've got to

1156
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:47,000
dig in your pockets. And I don't understand why they

1157
00:58:47,039 --> 00:58:49,239
don't do that. Did they just want a team that's

1158
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:52,920
just mediocre sometimes? Or do they not just want to

1159
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:54,960
pay them? You know, I don't get it.

1160
00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 3: Wait a minute, did nothing of Astros go to seven

1161
00:59:00,119 --> 00:59:02,679
straight American League Championship Series until this year?

1162
00:59:03,639 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1163
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 15: But there's always someone that is dissatisfied and they you know,

1164
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:11,159
look what happened to Nolan Ryan back way way back then.

1165
00:59:11,639 --> 00:59:15,239
Speaker 3: You made eighty You mean in nineteen eighty. You're you're

1166
00:59:15,239 --> 00:59:17,079
gonna give me a nineteen eighty reference.

1167
00:59:18,039 --> 00:59:20,800
Speaker 15: No, I'm just gonna say what they did. They don't

1168
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:22,840
want to get in their pockets and pay the money.

1169
00:59:24,519 --> 00:59:28,119
Speaker 3: Well, they did pay. They have paid Alex Bregnant before.

1170
00:59:28,239 --> 00:59:30,920
They have paid Jose l t V multiplications, They have

1171
00:59:31,039 --> 00:59:33,960
paid you on On Alvarez, they have paid Justin Verlander.

1172
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:36,719
Give me some more, Rossie. Who else have they paid?

1173
00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:43,639
Took care of? To Jose they paid I've had some

1174
00:59:43,719 --> 00:59:45,719
of the money spent hasn't been great, but they had

1175
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,639
the top five payroll this year. I mean, honestly, Ken,

1176
00:59:48,719 --> 00:59:49,679
they're not miserly.

1177
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 15: Okay, Well, they got a lot of dissatisfied players then,

1178
00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:56,960
I guess because they're not getting what the other teams did.

1179
00:59:57,039 --> 01:00:00,480
Are consistent ones get I don't think I be wrong,

1180
01:00:00,559 --> 01:00:01,800
but that's my opinion.

1181
01:00:02,079 --> 01:00:05,679
Speaker 3: All right, Thanks for the phone call. The let's be

1182
01:00:05,760 --> 01:00:09,760
brutally honest on some things here. The George Springer deal

1183
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,480
was not good for the Toronto Blue Jays he has

1184
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:18,400
been a disappointment. Um, Garrett Cole to me feels like

1185
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:22,639
an overpay. Now granted he has helped them go on,

1186
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,360
but it's still felt like that was way over market

1187
01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:31,239
value for him. Who else has left? Charlie Morton was

1188
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,480
a guy that well, Charlie the Morton they should have kept,

1189
01:00:33,599 --> 01:00:35,960
quite frank, Yeah, Charlie Morton was reasonable. That would have been.

1190
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:39,440
That's actually the one I'll go to bat for. Carlo's

1191
01:00:39,519 --> 01:00:42,800
Correa has been okay, up and down for the for

1192
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,760
the Twins not but I wouldn't say great value for that.

1193
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:48,800
For the Twins, I would say Garrett Cole has been excellent.

1194
01:00:49,679 --> 01:00:51,679
I mean, he won the cy Young last year. But

1195
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,719
maybe maybe I'm just thinking of it's just too much

1196
01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:57,159
to pay one picture. It's just he had thirty million

1197
01:00:57,199 --> 01:00:59,440
dollars for an ACE that's market value or what is

1198
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,840
he making now? Thirty thirty six it's got to be

1199
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:06,119
north of that thirty six a year. Remember he missed

1200
01:01:06,119 --> 01:01:07,840
some time before the start of the season. Yeah, he

1201
01:01:08,039 --> 01:01:11,079
likes that money, apparently when he called the show earlier, Yeah,

1202
01:01:11,519 --> 01:01:13,159
and he did not like the reference that he that

1203
01:01:13,239 --> 01:01:14,880
he and his wife were address up as current and

1204
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:15,440
miss Piggy.

1205
01:01:15,519 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 14: That was.

1206
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:17,800
Speaker 3: That was But I didn't bring that up. He brought

1207
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:21,480
that up himself, so he was preemptive. He said, why

1208
01:01:21,559 --> 01:01:22,920
is his wife gonna be buzz Lightyear?

1209
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:23,079
Speaker 6: Though?

1210
01:01:23,079 --> 01:01:25,039
Speaker 3: That's kind of weird. Yeah, that is weird.

1211
01:01:25,199 --> 01:01:25,280
Speaker 6: Uh.

1212
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:27,559
Speaker 3: You know, look, players leave all the time. It's not

1213
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:31,639
it's not personal. It's it's completely financial. You know, That's

1214
01:01:31,639 --> 01:01:34,320
what it is. Jim Crane has a stance he does

1215
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:37,400
not want to play players deep into his thirties, players

1216
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,519
that he broke that promise for that rule for Verlander

1217
01:01:41,519 --> 01:01:43,920
who was terrible this year, and jose Oh braw who

1218
01:01:44,159 --> 01:01:45,840
you had to eat a year and a half plus

1219
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,239
of that contract. So I mean, I think the example

1220
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,639
is generally work in his favor. Yeah, all right, let's

1221
01:01:52,639 --> 01:01:54,480
get to doctor Rotal here. You got any questions about

fly in my way. My first round pig turned out

1260
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:08,760
to be a big flop. I don't know which.

1261
01:04:08,719 --> 01:04:12,079
Speaker 13: Wide receiver I need to drive.

1262
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:19,440
Speaker 3: Ooo, Doctor Roto, gimme the news. I really don't know

1263
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:20,840
what I should do.

1264
01:04:22,039 --> 01:04:26,320
Speaker 7: My quarterback keeps getting sacked. I've got a bad case

1265
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,119
of fair deceive blue.

1266
01:04:31,119 --> 01:04:34,239
Speaker 3: Move who it is the fastest thirty minutes of major

1267
01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:36,760
market radio. We say hello to the one, the only

1268
01:04:37,119 --> 01:04:41,599
Doctor Roto here on Sports Talk seven ninety Doc. First,

1269
01:04:41,639 --> 01:04:43,960
will good to hear your voice. Secondly, we've got to

1270
01:04:44,039 --> 01:04:47,440
figure out a serious situation with the Texans receiving corps.

1271
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:51,199
This week snow Stefan Diggs, no Nico Collins until next

1272
01:04:51,239 --> 01:04:55,159
week against Detroit was it worthy of picking up some

1273
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:58,480
people on waivers if available for the Texans tonight game

1274
01:04:58,559 --> 01:05:00,159
against the Jets tonight.

1275
01:05:00,719 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 14: It's gonna be an ugly game, empty it is, I

1276
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:06,639
do think. Look, Joe Mixon is absolutely in play. The

1277
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:08,719
Jets have not been good at stopping the run, and

1278
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:10,840
you know that the Texans have been leaning on the run,

1279
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,480
and they're gonna have to do that tonight. Luckily they're

1280
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:15,519
playing the Jets, who play a lot of man coverage.

1281
01:05:15,559 --> 01:05:17,760
That feeds right into what Tank Dell wants to do.

1282
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,400
You know, we still have Dalton Schultz there, who's just fine.

1283
01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:24,360
Now in terms of the other receivers, you're gonna see

1284
01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,199
Hutchinson play, You're gonna see Mechi play, and I think

1285
01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:29,679
you're really gonna see Robert Woods take a big step up.

1286
01:05:30,039 --> 01:05:33,000
Woods is that veteran guy who knows the routes, knows

1287
01:05:33,039 --> 01:05:35,800
where to go. I think he's probably the safest bet.

1288
01:05:36,239 --> 01:05:38,119
But I don't think I want any of those three

1289
01:05:38,159 --> 01:05:40,719
guys for fantasy. So give me Mixon, give me Dell,

1290
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:43,079
give me Schultz and Stroud.

1291
01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:43,159
Speaker 6: And that's it.

1292
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:47,079
Speaker 3: Anybody on the Jets side, Yeah, I want.

1293
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,679
Speaker 14: Brice Hall for sure. Rogers the problem with Breese Hall is,

1294
01:05:50,719 --> 01:05:52,159
you know what Rogers likes to do. They get on

1295
01:05:52,239 --> 01:05:53,840
the three yard line. They're not running the ball. He's

1296
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,599
trying to pay his stats and get some touchdowns. DeVante

1297
01:05:56,639 --> 01:05:59,280
Adams looks like he can't get separation. So I don't

1298
01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:01,239
know whether it's the life of knowing the playbook or

1299
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,119
maybe it's that hamstring. He doesn't look great. Garrett Wilson

1300
01:06:04,159 --> 01:06:07,159
looks way better. Well, I start Adams probably, so I'm

1301
01:06:07,159 --> 01:06:09,760
gonna start Adams. I'm gonna start Wilson, and I'll start

1302
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,320
Breese Hall. I don't feel great about Aaron Rodgers tonight.

1303
01:06:13,039 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to the games around the NFL

1304
01:06:15,559 --> 01:06:17,000
this week, and again, if you've got a question about

1305
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:20,000
a particular player or players, you can start dialing in

1306
01:06:20,119 --> 01:06:22,559
right now to seven one three two one two five

1307
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,639
seven ninety seven to one three, two, one two five

1308
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,599
seven ninety We've got a quarterback change in Indianapolis, Joe

1309
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:32,400
Flacco difference maker this week, Yes or no?

1310
01:06:33,559 --> 01:06:37,239
Speaker 14: Yes, And here's why you can't win games When your

1311
01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,840
quarterback completes ten passes just not enough.

1312
01:06:40,079 --> 01:06:41,440
Speaker 5: It's not good for your receivers.

1313
01:06:41,679 --> 01:06:44,440
Speaker 14: Richardson is not ready and now you've got to play Minnesota,

1314
01:06:44,599 --> 01:06:46,239
who's gonna blitz literally.

1315
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:46,599
Speaker 5: On every down.

1316
01:06:47,039 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 14: It could turn ugly, So Flacco gives them the best

1317
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:52,320
chance to win it. I think it also helps their receivers.

1318
01:06:52,599 --> 01:06:55,119
Michael Pittman and Josh Downs is in play. On the

1319
01:06:55,159 --> 01:06:57,960
other side, TJ. Hockinson is back, which is great to see.

1320
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:00,760
Justin Jefferson is always in play. And I got a

1321
01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:03,280
very good friend in Minnesota who calls this the squeaky

1322
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:07,159
wheel narrative because Jordan Addison is complaining about not getting

1323
01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:10,039
enough targets, so they'll try to feed him as well.

1324
01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:12,920
Speaker 3: All right, so there's your thought about this on the

1325
01:07:13,039 --> 01:07:16,519
nine game, let's get to Detroit and Green Bay. I

1326
01:07:16,719 --> 01:07:20,079
cannot wait for this bad boy sundaing it three twenty five.

1327
01:07:21,039 --> 01:07:24,800
Tell me if you can go five deep on both sides? Correct?

1328
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:26,039
Or are you going to hold off some people on

1329
01:07:26,079 --> 01:07:26,840
the Green Bay side?

1330
01:07:27,719 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 5: No?

1331
01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:28,639
Speaker 3: No, no, you can't.

1332
01:07:28,679 --> 01:07:31,079
Speaker 14: And good The good news is Jordan Love was at

1333
01:07:31,119 --> 01:07:33,639
practice today, so I think he's gonna give it every

1334
01:07:33,719 --> 01:07:35,280
chance he can to go, and if he does, it's

1335
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:38,079
a game changer. So let's just talk about the receivers.

1336
01:07:38,159 --> 01:07:42,079
Romeo Dobbs has been sensational. He's really good against man coverage,

1337
01:07:42,079 --> 01:07:44,800
and Detroit rolls out a ton of man coverage, so

1338
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:46,199
we're gonna want to look at Dobbs.

1339
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:48,599
Speaker 5: I like Jane Reed not as much this week, but

1340
01:07:48,639 --> 01:07:49,119
I like him.

1341
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:51,960
Speaker 14: I like Tucker Kraft for sure. And then keep your

1342
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:55,159
eyes on Christian Watson. They may need him to make

1343
01:07:55,199 --> 01:07:58,519
a big play downfield and challenge this Lions defense. Look,

1344
01:07:58,559 --> 01:08:01,039
the Lions always come out tough, but what happens is

1345
01:08:01,159 --> 01:08:04,039
if you start beating them, they lose confidence quickly. On

1346
01:08:04,119 --> 01:08:07,639
the other side of the ball. Listen, we're playing David Montgomery.

1347
01:08:07,719 --> 01:08:10,119
You play him every time you play Gibbs, every time

1348
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:13,360
you play am Rossaint Brown, every time Jamis and Williams

1349
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:13,960
are still out.

1350
01:08:14,199 --> 01:08:16,479
Speaker 5: I don't trust Sam Laporta as much this week.

1351
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 14: I do believe GoF ends up going, but I think

1352
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,279
that I think you're gonna They're gonna run on Green

1353
01:08:21,359 --> 01:08:23,880
Bay as much as they can. So Montgomery, Gibbs, and

1354
01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:27,119
on Ama Rossaint Brown all can score touchdowns.

1355
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,560
Speaker 3: All right, Chargers go to Cleveland to take on the Browns.

1356
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:33,239
Brown's a huge victory last week. Are you buying in

1357
01:08:33,359 --> 01:08:36,960
on any of the Jamis Winston one week. Amazing work

1358
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,399
that he did last Sunday, I.

1359
01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:41,920
Speaker 14: Am I'm buying into it now. I think what happened

1360
01:08:42,119 --> 01:08:45,680
was last week. Baltimore's past defense is not very good.

1361
01:08:46,119 --> 01:08:48,800
The Chargers have been stingy. Jim Harba has done a

1362
01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:51,239
really great job with this team. So I think they're

1363
01:08:51,279 --> 01:08:53,880
gonna keep the ball, and they're gonna keep the defense

1364
01:08:54,119 --> 01:08:56,720
and make Jamis dink and dunk right. They're not gonna

1365
01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:59,000
let Jamis go deep, which is what Jamis wants to do.

1366
01:08:59,359 --> 01:09:01,800
I think that's changes the Browns offense.

1367
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:01,880
Speaker 5: A little bit.

1368
01:09:02,079 --> 01:09:03,960
Speaker 14: I think you're going to see more Nick Chubb and

1369
01:09:04,079 --> 01:09:06,840
take a look for David Nujoku and Elijah Moore. I

1370
01:09:06,880 --> 01:09:08,560
don't think they're gonna be able to go to Judy

1371
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:09,960
and Tilman like they've been doing.

1372
01:09:10,399 --> 01:09:11,720
Speaker 5: On the other side of the ball.

1373
01:09:12,039 --> 01:09:14,439
Speaker 14: There's a guy, if people don't know him, Ladd mcconkee

1374
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:18,399
from the University of Georgia. He's a man covered specialist

1375
01:09:18,479 --> 01:09:20,279
and oh what, by the way, what do the Browns

1376
01:09:20,319 --> 01:09:24,399
love playing man coverage. Ladd McConkie had two touchdowns last week.

1377
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:26,159
I think he scores again this week.

1378
01:09:26,199 --> 01:09:26,640
Speaker 6: I really do.

1379
01:09:28,039 --> 01:09:30,640
Speaker 3: Derek Carr apparently is back for New Orleans. Do we

1380
01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:31,800
care when they go to Carolina?

1381
01:09:33,359 --> 01:09:35,399
Speaker 14: Well, look, I mean this is the whole season right

1382
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:37,159
here for the Saints. If they don't win this game,

1383
01:09:37,279 --> 01:09:39,720
it's done. I think Derek Carr returning is a big thing,

1384
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:43,359
and Chris Olave will benefit, you know, immensely. We haven't

1385
01:09:43,399 --> 01:09:45,239
heard the name Taysom Hill in a while. I think

1386
01:09:45,279 --> 01:09:47,199
you're going to see him. I don't know if he scores,

1387
01:09:47,279 --> 01:09:49,520
but I think he'll be involved. And of course Alvin

1388
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,399
Kamara is not one hundred percent, but he Look, this

1389
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,520
is a game I'm still playing him. I expect that

1390
01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:56,159
he'll practice in full on Friday.

1391
01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:58,159
Speaker 5: So you want to start Kamara, You want to.

1392
01:09:58,119 --> 01:10:00,920
Speaker 14: Start a Lave Hill if you're dead, and car if

1393
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:02,680
you're death. But on the other side of the ball,

1394
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:04,319
Deontay Johnson.

1395
01:10:04,199 --> 01:10:07,880
Speaker 5: Is gone, right, he's in Baltimore. I think Xavier Legette

1396
01:10:07,960 --> 01:10:09,199
is going to be the number one.

1397
01:10:09,119 --> 01:10:11,720
Speaker 14: Receiver there, and that the Saints rolled out a lot

1398
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:13,960
of man coverage, which I think leget should do a

1399
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:14,680
good job against.

1400
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 3: All Right, Tampa Bay and Kansas City is the Monday

1401
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,359
night game? Does the You see the Bucks every single

1402
01:10:21,359 --> 01:10:23,800
week because you're down that neck of the Woods. Are

1403
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:26,439
they helter skelter offensively? Are there some weeks that you

1404
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,600
expect big things happen and nothing does, and then other

1405
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:30,479
weeks where you expect them to be tame and they don't.

1406
01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:33,279
And I guess the question would be, are we due

1407
01:10:33,399 --> 01:10:36,800
for a Kansas City let down a little bit? I mean,

1408
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,079
we just don't see very many teams this late in

1409
01:10:39,119 --> 01:10:40,279
the season remain undefeated.

1410
01:10:42,279 --> 01:10:44,359
Speaker 14: We are, but I'm not sure the Bucks are the

1411
01:10:44,399 --> 01:10:47,319
team that can get it done. The Bucks really, now,

1412
01:10:47,399 --> 01:10:50,359
here's the thing? The Bucks stop to run? So now,

1413
01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:52,479
could this be a Patrick Mahomes passing week?

1414
01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:53,640
Speaker 5: It very well could be.

1415
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:56,199
Speaker 14: Could we be seeing way more Hopkins than we did

1416
01:10:56,319 --> 01:10:58,960
last week? Yes, And we're gonna certainly see a ton

1417
01:10:59,039 --> 01:11:01,359
of Kelsey in this game. Now, do I think Kareem

1418
01:11:01,399 --> 01:11:03,640
Hunt has a big game? Maybe as a receiver more

1419
01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:06,119
than a runner. On the other side of the football,

1420
01:11:06,239 --> 01:11:08,359
I think Baker did a very credible job last week

1421
01:11:08,399 --> 01:11:10,560
without Godwin, without Mike Evans, I mean.

1422
01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,239
Speaker 5: That's losing a ton of talent. Kate Otton has been.

1423
01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:16,239
Speaker 14: Sensational and by the way, oh, who's the worst team

1424
01:11:16,239 --> 01:11:19,079
in the NFL against opposing tight ends? That's right, it's

1425
01:11:19,119 --> 01:11:21,399
a Kansas City chief. So Auton's gonna have a good game.

1426
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:23,720
And I think they're gonna have to run the football

1427
01:11:24,159 --> 01:11:28,439
with you know, with Rashad White and Bucky Irving and

1428
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:32,479
Sean Tucker. So Baker's gonna throw to Auten and he's

1429
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,760
gonna throw to his receivers a little bit. But I

1430
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:36,960
think they're gonna have to control the time of possession

1431
01:11:37,239 --> 01:11:39,640
and keep Mahomes off the field. It's gonna be hard

1432
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:41,640
to do. I think that, you know, look as Kansas

1433
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,800
City gonna lose, yet they will, I just don't think

1434
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:44,600
it's gonna be this week.

1435
01:11:45,159 --> 01:11:48,880
Speaker 3: And lastly, Miami bo, how have things changed now the

1436
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:50,239
two is back for the Dolphins.

1437
01:11:51,319 --> 01:11:53,680
Speaker 14: Well, look, at least Miami has a semblance of an offense.

1438
01:11:54,319 --> 01:11:56,319
There's some rumors down here that they may want to

1439
01:11:56,359 --> 01:11:58,479
trade Mostart. I think that makes a little sense. A

1440
01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:01,800
Chan is sensational, especially with two of back. He may

1441
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:03,760
be one of my plays of the week. I really

1442
01:12:03,960 --> 01:12:07,039
like him. Right, is a very good young running back

1443
01:12:07,079 --> 01:12:09,239
as well, so they may not need most as much.

1444
01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:12,399
Now look it, Jalen Waddle has to get involved in

1445
01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:12,960
this offense.

1446
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,399
Speaker 5: They have not used to him enough.

1447
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:18,760
Speaker 14: Tyreek Hill is sensational, but Buffalo doesn't like to let

1448
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:20,920
you beat them deep. So I think they're gonna keep

1449
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:23,039
Hill and waddle in front of them and just once

1450
01:12:23,079 --> 01:12:25,600
again dank and dunk down the field, which is what

1451
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:27,359
two is happy to do. On the other side of

1452
01:12:27,359 --> 01:12:30,479
the ball, Miami, I don't think can stop Buffalo. James

1453
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:33,880
Cook has been sensational, Josh Allen runs when he needs to,

1454
01:12:34,319 --> 01:12:37,720
adding Amari Cooper has been sensational, Khalil Shakir has been

1455
01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:40,199
a great number two, and by the way, Kean Coleman,

1456
01:12:40,239 --> 01:12:42,520
the rookie from Florida State, has really been good in

1457
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:45,640
the red zone. So I just don't think Miami's defense

1458
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:47,159
can stop Buffalo's offense.

1459
01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:49,800
Speaker 3: All right, you want a question for doctor Roto'll get

01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:40,399
also are rather forgiving over Underdog. They have Underdog rescues

1476
01:13:40,399 --> 01:13:42,359
where you can get your money back and receive a

1477
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,439
promo if an early injury causes your entry to lose,

1478
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:48,399
and that can be certainly happening on the pro side

1479
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:50,680
on the NFL on Sunday. So what I want you

1480
01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:53,399
to do is I want you to take advantage of

1481
01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:55,640

1505
01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:10,079
Speaker 3: The Good Doctor with us on this Halloween seven one

1508
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:20,680
question for the Good Doc, and we will start things

1509
01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:23,680
off with Hugh and Conroe for Doctor Roto one seven

1510
01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:24,479

1511
01:15:25,279 --> 01:15:29,439
Speaker 21: Hey, how you guys doing good? Good quick question two

1512
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,119
one two two for real quick for Rodo one Kate

1513
01:15:32,239 --> 01:15:37,520
Auton or Trey McBride and number two two flex positions.

1514
01:15:37,560 --> 01:15:40,760
Give me two out of the four Josh Downs, Keyon Coleman,

1515
01:15:41,159 --> 01:15:42,720
Amari Cooper or at TN.

1516
01:15:44,319 --> 01:15:46,399
Speaker 14: All right, so we're gonna go Auton because it's just

1517
01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:49,079
a better matchup. I mean, McBride's been great, but against

1518
01:15:49,159 --> 01:15:51,279
Kansas City's a great matchup. I think you got to

1519
01:15:51,319 --> 01:15:54,439
go Josh Downs against with Joe Floko is a game

1520
01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:55,119
changer there.

1521
01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,720
Speaker 5: Downs is a great technical.

1522
01:15:57,319 --> 01:16:00,640
Speaker 14: Receiver and as long as Flocko doesn't get which he

1523
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:02,680
will be if he can stand in there, he'll find

1524
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:05,880
he'll find Downs. In terms of Buffalo, look, I like

1525
01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:08,399
Kean Coleman, but Amari Cooper's no more receiver there, So

1526
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,119
let's go with him, all right?

1527
01:16:10,199 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 3: Seven one three, two one two five seven. NINTI for

1528
01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:14,840
a question for Doctor Roto seven to one to three

1529
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:18,840

Thomas Show at Ross with Rodo.

1531
01:16:20,359 --> 01:16:25,119
Speaker 6: Go ahead, Mike Afternoon, Quick question, Sam Donald or Kyler

1532
01:16:25,199 --> 01:16:26,239
Murray to start this week?

1533
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 14: Yeah, so listen, I worry about Kyler Murray. What happened

1534
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,920
was last week he had time to throw. Miami's pass

1535
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,960
rusher is not there. You give Kyler time, he's gonna

1536
01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:39,680
be He's gonna do a good job. But Chicago's got

1537
01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:42,399
a very swarming pass rush, and I think he's going

1538
01:16:42,439 --> 01:16:46,079
to suffer Donald against the zone defense, the cover three

1539
01:16:46,119 --> 01:16:48,600
that Gus Bradley likes to run. I think Donald's going

1540
01:16:48,640 --> 01:16:51,239
to be fine. Donald's biggest problem is he holds the

1541
01:16:51,279 --> 01:16:53,840
ball until the receiver's wide open. You can't really do

1542
01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:55,680
that in the NFL. But I think he should be

1543
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:57,000
good for two touchdowns this week.

1544
01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:59,520
Speaker 3: All Right, I'm run a couple of emails and before

1545
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,399
back the owns of these three, Doctor Rota. Who to start?

1546
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,479
Kenneth Walker, Breist Hall or Tony Pollard Walker.

1547
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:08,319
Speaker 14: I mean, that's just a really good spot against the

1548
01:17:08,399 --> 01:17:10,640
Rams in a game that is about a forty nine total.

1549
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:11,720
Speaker 5: So Vegas likes it too.

1550
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,479
Speaker 3: Pprley, Garrett Wilson or Michael Pittman Junior.

1551
01:17:17,079 --> 01:17:21,279
Speaker 5: Wow, I don't love Wilson tonight. I don't, but Pittman. Look,

1552
01:17:21,319 --> 01:17:24,279
Pittman's in a better spot. The question is backspasms. You

1553
01:17:24,319 --> 01:17:25,319
know we're worried about him.

1554
01:17:26,199 --> 01:17:28,039
Speaker 14: I would lead Wilson because I don't want to have

1555
01:17:28,159 --> 01:17:29,760
somebody wait until Monday and then you don't have the

1556
01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:30,319
player play.

1557
01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:33,119
Speaker 3: Let me tell you about Pittman. He's been a number

1558
01:17:33,239 --> 01:17:36,079
one disappointment for me. Not being personal on this rodo,

1559
01:17:36,119 --> 01:17:37,560
but he's let me down. Consider it.

1560
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:38,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's Richardson.

1561
01:17:39,279 --> 01:17:42,279
Speaker 14: Richardson's completed the fewest number of passes in the league

1562
01:17:42,319 --> 01:17:42,640
this year.

1563
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:43,560
Speaker 5: Is a Pittman's fault.

1564
01:17:45,119 --> 01:17:47,079
Speaker 3: Okay. Josh Jacobs or JK.

1565
01:17:47,199 --> 01:17:50,800
Speaker 5: Dobbins, ooh, that's a nice one there.

1566
01:17:51,079 --> 01:17:55,279
Speaker 14: Look, Josh Jacobs is in a tough spot. I mean,

1567
01:17:55,359 --> 01:17:57,520
the Lions are really good against the run. I think

1568
01:17:57,560 --> 01:17:59,039
this is a game that the Packers are gonna have

1569
01:17:59,039 --> 01:17:59,760
to throw the football.

1570
01:17:59,840 --> 01:18:00,560
Speaker 5: So JK.

1571
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,319
Speaker 14: Dobbins not a great spot either on the road, but

1572
01:18:03,399 --> 01:18:05,720
I'll give it. I think that I'll give him a

1573
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:06,760
shot there. I'll go with Dobbins.

1574
01:18:07,279 --> 01:18:10,039
Speaker 3: All right, one of these three in a flex, Keon Coleman,

1575
01:18:10,119 --> 01:18:11,720
Travis at In or Rashaan White.

1576
01:18:13,039 --> 01:18:14,760
Speaker 5: All right, So let's just talk about Etn.

1577
01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:18,560
Speaker 14: He's expected to play, but he's gonna share opportunities with

1578
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,159
Tank Pixby. He can't take Tank Pigsby out of the lineup.

1579
01:18:21,199 --> 01:18:23,840
He's look great and you're playing Philadelphia, which means you're

1580
01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:26,039
likely losing. So I think he got to go with

1581
01:18:26,159 --> 01:18:28,560
shot White. We spoke about it before. He's good for

1582
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,319
about you know, twelve to fifteen touches a game, usually

1583
01:18:31,399 --> 01:18:33,960
catches three passes, and they do use him on the

1584
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:34,399
goal line.

1585
01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:35,479
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna go for shot White.

1586
01:18:36,199 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 3: Let's go to Geo on seven ninety for doctor rode

1587
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:39,399
O Higo.

1588
01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:45,920
Speaker 11: Hey, guys, so rote I think Tyrone Tracy is a

1589
01:18:46,119 --> 01:18:48,079
questionable So I don't know if he's gonna play or not.

1590
01:18:48,279 --> 01:18:50,520
If he does, that will be my flex. But in

1591
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:53,720
case he does not play, Uh, should I go with

1592
01:18:54,239 --> 01:19:00,960
Parker Washington? Or shall I go with Ray Palmer from

1593
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:01,399
the Bucks?

1594
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:03,039
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1595
01:19:03,159 --> 01:19:06,000
Speaker 14: So I don't think that Singletary is going to play. Please,

1596
01:19:06,039 --> 01:19:08,640
coming on a short week, and usually short week guys

1597
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:11,840
with concussions don't get cleared, so I would expect that

1598
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,560
he doesn't play. So look, you're talking about two guys

1599
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:17,960
who are third receivers there, So the question is I'd

1600
01:19:18,079 --> 01:19:21,920
rather play the receiver who's got the worst secondary that's

1601
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:24,319
going up against the Eagle secondary is bad, and that

1602
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:27,079
game could be a high scoring game. So give me

1603
01:19:27,199 --> 01:19:30,439
Parker Washington. Palmer's okay. I just don't see the Buccaneers

1604
01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:31,600
putting more than twenty points on the.

1605
01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:34,680
Speaker 3: Chiefs, Craft or Hockinson this week.

1606
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,640
Speaker 14: Oh, the Colts give out plenty of top touchdowns to

1607
01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:41,960
tight ends. I think Hockinson's not going to get a

1608
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:44,319
full load of snaps, but he could get a touchdown.

1609
01:19:44,359 --> 01:19:48,680
Speaker 3: I like Hockinson, Mooney, Spears or Bigsby in a flex.

1610
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,039
Speaker 14: I think it has to be Mooney. That Falcons Cowboy

1611
01:19:52,119 --> 01:19:54,479
game is going to be high scoring. Mooney seems to

1612
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:57,840
do really well at home. Kirk Cousins likes going to him.

1613
01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:01,640
Trayvon Jags will probably cover London, So I think Moody's

1614
01:20:01,640 --> 01:20:02,439
a good a good player.

1615
01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:06,199
Speaker 3: This week, Alan on seven ninety for doctor rode o'hi allen.

1616
01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:10,720
Speaker 10: Hello, how you got Kyler Murray or Sam Donald is

1617
01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:15,520
MQB and in a flex position, I have Brian Robinson

1618
01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:20,319
Junior got a Breeth Hall.

1619
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:22,159
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1620
01:20:22,199 --> 01:20:24,680
Speaker 14: The problem with Brian Robinson he's dealing with a knee injury.

1621
01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:27,439
So do I think he plays, Yes, but I think

1622
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:29,319
you have to play Brice Hall. I mean, if he

1623
01:20:29,399 --> 01:20:31,119
catches four or five passes, he's gonna.

1624
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:31,520
Speaker 5: Have more yards.

1625
01:20:32,159 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 14: We mentioned this before about Donald and Murray. I think

1626
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:37,399
Murray's gonna suffer against that Chicago pass rush. I think

1627
01:20:37,399 --> 01:20:39,520
I'm gonna take Sam Donald in a game that should

1628
01:20:39,560 --> 01:20:40,479
be about fifty points.

1629
01:20:41,279 --> 01:20:42,319
Speaker 3: Stroud or Cousins.

1630
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:46,359
Speaker 14: Oh Cousins. I mean, look, you play Stroud because you

1631
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:48,640
like him and he's your guy. But Cousins in a

1632
01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:49,640
much better spot.

1633
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:49,960
Speaker 6: This week.

1634
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:51,840
Speaker 5: This said do or die for the Jets. I mean,

1635
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:54,119
Houston could lose this game and still make the playoffs.

1636
01:20:54,199 --> 01:20:55,079
Jets lose this, it's.

1637
01:20:55,039 --> 01:20:58,319
Speaker 3: Over, yep. David in Houston on seven ninety for doctor

1638
01:20:58,359 --> 01:20:59,479
Rodal go ahead, David.

1639
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:04,680
Speaker 16: Hey, thank you, uh doctor Roto. Curious where you're out

1640
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:08,319
on Hopkins, you know, the best quarterback he ever played

1641
01:21:08,359 --> 01:21:13,159
with was Kyle Money. I mean Kyle Murray and what

1642
01:21:13,359 --> 01:21:17,239
your thoughts are on him moving forward? But also looking

1643
01:21:17,359 --> 01:21:18,960
at Cooper cup or.

1644
01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 5: Harrison.

1645
01:21:22,399 --> 01:21:24,520
Speaker 14: Yeah, I like Cooper cupp a ton I don't love

1646
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:26,520
Harrison this week. I think he's got a really tough

1647
01:21:26,600 --> 01:21:28,960
matchup against the Bears, and the Bears Bears are gonna

1648
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:30,199
be angry right after last week.

1649
01:21:30,199 --> 01:21:32,760
Speaker 5: They're gonna be angry. I really like DeAndre Hopkins. I

1650
01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:33,319
agree with you.

1651
01:21:33,720 --> 01:21:35,079
Speaker 14: I mean, can you ask for a better guy to

1652
01:21:35,119 --> 01:21:37,560
play with than Patrick Mahomes. But even as good as

1653
01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:39,600
Hopkins is, it takes some time to get up to

1654
01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:42,000
the playbook figure it out. They only ran him in

1655
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:44,000
the slot twice last week, and they went to him

1656
01:21:44,039 --> 01:21:46,720
both times. I think the more we see of him,

1657
01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,159
the more involved he's going to be, and the better

1658
01:21:49,239 --> 01:21:52,039
fantasy player he's going to be. So look, he's gonna

1659
01:21:52,039 --> 01:21:54,760
be sensational by week twelve or thirteen, but rolling in

1660
01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:56,399
week nine, so it's gonna take him a little time

1661
01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:56,920
to ramp up.

1662
01:21:57,720 --> 01:22:00,920
Speaker 3: Brian and Alvin for Doctor Roto on Sevenny Hi, Brian.

1663
01:22:01,600 --> 01:22:05,600
Speaker 6: Hey Man, Doctor Roto. Do I do Chubb Harbard for

1664
01:22:06,039 --> 01:22:08,359
Carolina or Urban for Campa Bay?

1665
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:10,680
Speaker 5: I think you do Tuba Hubbard.

1666
01:22:10,720 --> 01:22:13,560
Speaker 14: I don't really think Carolina stands a chance to win,

1667
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:16,600
but the guy gets twenty touches. Now, there's a rumor

1668
01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:19,439
that Jonathan Brooks is coming back this week. My insider

1669
01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:21,960
guy for Carolina thinks it's going to be one more week,

1670
01:22:22,239 --> 01:22:24,600
so this could be Tuba's last week as a starter.

1671
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 5: I think we go with him.

1672
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:30,479
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Christian and Cyprus on seven

1673
01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:33,279
Honey high Christian, Hi, thanks.

1674
01:22:33,119 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 22: For taking my call. I've got two quick ones, Chiefs

1675
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:42,119
defense or Chargers defense, and then I need two receivers.

1676
01:22:42,199 --> 01:22:44,760
And I don't know if I should start Pittman over

1677
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:47,479
Wandale Robinson and Jerry Judy.

1678
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would start Pittman over Wandelle. I would.

1679
01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:54,600
Speaker 14: Judy's okay, but he's not great. I know Jamis likes

1680
01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:57,680
going to him, but I think you've got Kilman there,

1681
01:22:57,720 --> 01:22:59,479
You've got Elijah More there, you got Nick Chubb there.

1682
01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:00,760
You've got a lot of a lot of options. So

1683
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:03,600
I'm not big on Judy this week. In terms of

1684
01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,640
the defense is look, Jameis Winston could throw two interceptions,

1685
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,279
but I think this is all about Kansas City at home.

1686
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:12,960
Baker forces the ball sometimes I think I'm taking Kansas

1687
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:15,439
City there. And of course Mikole Hartman can return a

1688
01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:17,319
punt or a kickoff return for a touchdown.

1689
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:20,000
Speaker 3: All right, a couple more ifore we get to your lock,

1690
01:23:20,079 --> 01:23:23,680
let's go to uh Believe Allan and Spring go ahead.

1691
01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:26,279
Speaker 5: Allen Layman ross O Connor on this one.

1692
01:23:27,079 --> 01:23:29,159
Speaker 3: I would go Connor on that one, easy, all right,

1693
01:23:29,199 --> 01:23:33,199
real quick and do nothing Aughten or Bowers in a PPR.

1694
01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:35,520
Speaker 5: Oh Man, that's a tough one.

1695
01:23:35,880 --> 01:23:36,199
Speaker 6: Those are.

1696
01:23:36,399 --> 01:23:38,359
Speaker 14: Look, Bowers is a number one head end in football

1697
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:41,399
right now and on the top five. I think Aton

1698
01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:45,479
has a better matchup, so I'll go with him. But boy,

1699
01:23:45,560 --> 01:23:47,640
they're two great players, all right.

1700
01:23:47,840 --> 01:23:51,640
Speaker 3: And there was one more Kyler Murray or Caleb this

1701
01:23:51,800 --> 01:23:55,199
week for those quarterbacks, you know, can.

1702
01:23:55,079 --> 01:23:57,840
Speaker 5: I tell you something? Caleb was one end from being crowned.

1703
01:23:57,920 --> 01:23:59,560
Oh he was the best rookie quarterback.

1704
01:24:00,159 --> 01:24:00,560
Speaker 14: Terrible.

1705
01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:03,199
Speaker 5: Did you watch him last week? He's terrible.

1706
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,720
Speaker 14: Jaydan Daniels a million times better. As much as I

1707
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:09,720
don't like Kyler Murray this week, I hate Caleb Williams.

1708
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:11,319
Speaker 5: I don't think he's a great quarterback.

1709
01:24:11,399 --> 01:24:13,399
Speaker 14: There I said it. I think he's more, you know,

1710
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,039
sure he's the Yeah, I don't think he's great. Gim

1711
01:24:16,079 --> 01:24:18,399
me Stroud any day overtailed. Give me Jayden and Daniels

1712
01:24:18,439 --> 01:24:19,319
any day overtailed.

1713
01:24:20,319 --> 01:24:22,600
Speaker 3: All right, there we go, ladies on real quick though,

1714
01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:25,319
Matt hold on, no, we have no time half PPR.

1715
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,159
Connor or James Connor Kareem Hunt.

1716
01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:30,840
Speaker 5: Oh, I like James Connor.

1717
01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:32,359
Speaker 14: I think they're going to scheme for him, and if they,

1718
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:33,960
if they're gonna beat the Bears, they're gonna have to

1719
01:24:34,039 --> 01:24:34,520
run through him.

1720
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:35,560
Speaker 5: He's gonna get twenty touches.

1721
01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 3: All right, Thank you, glad you were able to help

1722
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:41,720
out Ross in his league. Me while I'm in eleventh

1723
01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:45,239
place and then giving up quickly by the week. Tell

1724
01:24:45,319 --> 01:24:48,560
him don't quit, please, it's too late, all right, ladies, Jeffen,

1725
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:50,159
we asked doctor Roto once a week to give us

1726
01:24:50,159 --> 01:24:53,199
a knockdown, drag out one sod of the winter. We

1727
01:24:53,279 --> 01:24:58,199
present to you, dtor Rodos lock of the Week. What

1728
01:24:58,239 --> 01:24:58,840
do you got this week?

1729
01:24:58,920 --> 01:24:59,119
Speaker 6: Rodo?

1730
01:25:00,199 --> 01:25:02,840
Speaker 14: Speaking of rookies, I like I like Elak Neighbors. I

1731
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,319
don't like the Giants, but I love Molak Neighbors who

1732
01:25:05,399 --> 01:25:08,920
claim Washington and what's Washington's big weakness all season their

1733
01:25:09,039 --> 01:25:11,760
secondary And so I think Neighbors has a big week.

1734
01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:14,039
They're playing a lot of man coverage and Neighbors is

1735
01:25:14,199 --> 01:25:16,479
just so the separation.

1736
01:25:16,159 --> 01:25:18,600
Speaker 5: He gets enormous. I think he goes ninety yards and

1737
01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:19,079
a touchdown.

1738
01:25:19,159 --> 01:25:21,640
Speaker 3: Let's lock that one in, and that my friends, is

1739
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:26,600

01:26:41,359 --> 01:26:44,439
Eddie Nunez, Vice president in ACLINT Athletics at the University

1768
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:45,960
of Houston, Eddie Howard, Things.

1769
01:26:47,319 --> 01:26:48,680
Speaker 6: Going great, man? How about yourself?

1770
01:26:49,359 --> 01:26:52,159
Speaker 3: No, compliance is busy with this rockets, travel and watching

1771
01:26:52,199 --> 01:26:55,319
these Cougars. First and foremost, you've been on the job

1772
01:26:55,399 --> 01:26:57,600
a couple of months. You've got the office I think

1773
01:26:57,680 --> 01:26:59,279
set up at least the way you want to, at

1774
01:26:59,359 --> 01:27:02,439
least partially. Now that you've hit your feet on the

1775
01:27:02,439 --> 01:27:05,199
ground for a little bit, what are some early observations

1776
01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,880
of your time running our campus.

1777
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:12,920
Speaker 6: It's such a vibrant campus there really is. There's a

1778
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:16,600
lot more than people actually see. I've enjoyed walking around,

1779
01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:20,840
getting through campus, getting to know many of the faculty,

1780
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:23,640
to staff, the students, uh and and then more than

1781
01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:27,800
anything else, getting around and watching our our student athletes

1782
01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,800
practice and compete. So it's it's been fun. We've got

1783
01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:33,239
a lot of things to do here, but some great,

1784
01:27:33,359 --> 01:27:34,720
great opportunities in front of us.

1785
01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:38,479
Speaker 3: There really is you're having a balance. I'm going to

1786
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:41,760
assume the hey I want to meet you, Hey I

1787
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:44,279
want to get to know you, then hey I know

1788
01:27:44,399 --> 01:27:46,319
what you want, or hey, here's what I need from you.

1789
01:27:46,560 --> 01:27:48,199
Are you still in that kind of phase right now.

1790
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:52,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's still an assessment. I'm learning as much as

1791
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:56,399
I can learn. I'm trying to challenge certain certain groups

1792
01:27:56,399 --> 01:28:00,800
of certain people with with what I believe are are

1793
01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:03,439
things that we can do immediately but that will have

1794
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:07,000
a long term effect for the department. I think little

1795
01:28:07,079 --> 01:28:11,359
things like and our fans they love through social media

1796
01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:13,640
to be able to give me some greaded thoughts and

1797
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,319
advice about what we need to do for the Koogs

1798
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:20,520
and things like merchandising. I think they saw it last

1799
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:24,600
game we started opening up the store and providing more

1800
01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,039
access to more apparel.

1801
01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:28,520
Speaker 5: This week they'll see even more of that.

1802
01:28:30,039 --> 01:28:34,199
Speaker 6: So the more that I can hear that our opportunities

1803
01:28:34,239 --> 01:28:36,680
for our fans to not just help build our brand,

1804
01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:39,800
but help build this department the right way, and if

1805
01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:42,640
it also helps generate new revenue for the department. It's

1806
01:28:42,760 --> 01:28:45,119
it's truly a win win. So we're trying to do

1807
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,800
a lot in a short amount of time because the

1808
01:28:48,880 --> 01:28:51,800
reality is I would if I was here a year ago,

1809
01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:53,880
I would have told you we would be in a

1810
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:57,159
much better place. But for being here for two months,

1811
01:28:57,199 --> 01:28:59,319
we've done some great things and we still got a long,

1812
01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:00,000
long way ahead.

1813
01:29:01,119 --> 01:29:03,119
Speaker 3: And one of the things apparel wise, you guys can

1814
01:29:03,159 --> 01:29:04,920
take advantage of I've been telling the audience about it

1815
01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:07,520
this week is the thirty dollars special. You've got Cougar

1816
01:29:08,319 --> 01:29:10,439
black T shirt and a ticket for the University of

1817
01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:13,159
Houston versus Kansas State. That'll be a two thirty And

1818
01:29:13,199 --> 01:29:15,199
if you want to get those tickets, you can go

1819
01:29:15,239 --> 01:29:19,079
to uachecougars dot com slash black. That's uachecougars dot com

1820
01:29:19,279 --> 01:29:23,239
slash black the game day experience. Look, you were at

1821
01:29:23,359 --> 01:29:25,239
LSU for a long time, you were at Mexico running

1822
01:29:25,239 --> 01:29:28,439
your own shop there. And the thing I've noticed about

1823
01:29:28,520 --> 01:29:30,800
talking to a lot of athletic directors over my career

1824
01:29:31,479 --> 01:29:34,439
is that there is literally, Eddie, no two jobs that

1825
01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:36,840
are just alike. So are you having to kind of

1826
01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:38,880
go back in the memory banks about what works at

1827
01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:42,439
LSU work to do Mexico, what could work at Houston,

1828
01:29:43,000 --> 01:29:45,359
and how do you kind of balance all that to say, well,

1829
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:48,359
it worked in Baton Rouge, it didn't work in Abuquerque,

1830
01:29:48,479 --> 01:29:50,560
it can work in Houston. How do you balance all that.

1831
01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:57,479
Speaker 6: It's taking all those experiences and try to trying them

1832
01:29:57,520 --> 01:30:01,359
out something as simple as we know, we're trying to

1833
01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:05,079
really ramp up tailgating here. The Texans do a great

1834
01:30:05,119 --> 01:30:07,840
job with tailgating at their football game. Of course, places

1835
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:11,119
that I've been from LSU in Florida, they all do

1836
01:30:11,319 --> 01:30:15,000
great jobs. The SEC as a whole has been known

1837
01:30:15,039 --> 01:30:19,199
for that. And you know we are in Texas where tailgating,

1838
01:30:19,199 --> 01:30:22,880
where we're getting together with friends to do something outside,

1839
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,439
especially at an athletic contest, is something that's been around

1840
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,359
for a long time. We need to go back and

1841
01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:32,600
start finding ways to create that culture again to invite

1842
01:30:33,159 --> 01:30:37,239
our supporters to come out enjoy it. With traffic and

1843
01:30:37,279 --> 01:30:40,520
all the other nuances that at times people say Houston

1844
01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:43,840
makes it difficult to attend games, the reality is come early,

1845
01:30:44,159 --> 01:30:47,560
come enjoy yourself. There's with the new sports, the new

1846
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:49,439
gift shop, and other things that we're opening up that

1847
01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:53,800
are going to be available early, the tailgating, the ability

1848
01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:56,840
to walk around see things through our marketing and our

1849
01:30:56,880 --> 01:30:59,520
game day experience. That's what we have to do. We

1850
01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:02,560
have to a better atmosphere, we have to get people

1851
01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:05,720
here early. We have to let them enjoy themselves, truly.

1852
01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:08,800
So I'm going around as much as I can listening

1853
01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:13,399
to our fans that are tailgatting, trying to listen and

1854
01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:15,359
find ways to continue to make it better. But all

1855
01:31:15,359 --> 01:31:18,319
those experiences that I've had at other places are are

1856
01:31:18,399 --> 01:31:21,239
going to help us understand what's possible, what the maybe

1857
01:31:21,319 --> 01:31:24,560
things that work there might not work here, and vice versa.

1858
01:31:24,760 --> 01:31:28,319
So we're going to continue to tweak things and try

1859
01:31:28,399 --> 01:31:29,439
to put the best foot forward.

1860
01:31:30,600 --> 01:31:34,119
Speaker 3: The football program is in transition obviously with Willie, and

1861
01:31:34,399 --> 01:31:36,399
I'm so impressed with what he's been able to do

1862
01:31:36,600 --> 01:31:39,000
just in the short time on the job. And I

1863
01:31:39,079 --> 01:31:42,079
thought last week's win against Utah was very gritty. This

1864
01:31:42,239 --> 01:31:43,960
is a team that was expected the youths were to

1865
01:31:44,079 --> 01:31:46,479
contend for the Big twelve, and I think their cougar's

1866
01:31:46,479 --> 01:31:49,439
added some misery and this week would be a real

1867
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:51,600
fun op opportunity. I know you are trying to spread

1868
01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:53,039
the message to get as many folks in for that

1869
01:31:53,119 --> 01:31:56,600
Kansas State game because that Waldcat team is very, very talented.

1870
01:31:58,199 --> 01:32:00,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, the one thing that I hope our fans are

1871
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:04,399
proud of is our guys keep competing. They they at

1872
01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:09,520
times maybe we don't have everything running the way perfectly

1873
01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:11,760
that we needed to run. And I think coach in

1874
01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:13,800
his first in his lessont first year. I mean it's

1875
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:15,399
his first year, but of course he has only been

1876
01:32:15,439 --> 01:32:19,760
here for about six months or so, allowing him to

1877
01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:22,720
really build the culture, build the program the way that

1878
01:32:23,239 --> 01:32:26,560
he has done everywhere else. It's no different than what

1879
01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:29,279
we've seen with the basketball program and doing it the

1880
01:32:29,399 --> 01:32:32,199
right way. He's gonna build this. But the one thing

1881
01:32:32,279 --> 01:32:34,359
that's evident is the guys are gonna fight. They're gonna

1882
01:32:34,399 --> 01:32:37,439
keep fighting. They're going to keep fighting, and we can't

1883
01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:40,159
hurt ourselves out there and when we when we do.

1884
01:32:40,760 --> 01:32:42,680
That's what it really impressed me about last week's game.

1885
01:32:43,399 --> 01:32:45,640
We had some opportunities we didn't take advantage of. They

1886
01:32:45,680 --> 01:32:48,039
could have just forget it and just tanked it, and

1887
01:32:48,159 --> 01:32:50,439
they can't. They kept fighting and they found ways and

1888
01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:52,960
so to be able to get Kansas State here. The

1889
01:32:53,039 --> 01:32:55,479
blackout game, to be able to a two thirty game

1890
01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,159
on Fox. It's going to be a great opportunity to

1891
01:32:58,479 --> 01:33:02,239
showcase what we are while we can be and again

1892
01:33:02,359 --> 01:33:06,800
another chance for us to compete in this league per when.

1893
01:33:07,079 --> 01:33:10,960
And so I'm encouraging our fans, our students, everybody come out.

1894
01:33:11,239 --> 01:33:13,920
We need you now more than ever. Help us continue

1895
01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:16,800
to build this program the right way that they're going

1896
01:33:16,880 --> 01:33:19,760
to be proud of. Our kids need your support now.

1897
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:23,600
And so it's gonna be a fun weekend. We got

1898
01:33:23,640 --> 01:33:27,720
basketball and starting back up next week women's basketball as well.

1899
01:33:27,840 --> 01:33:32,279
So everything is happening right now, and hopefully our fans

1900
01:33:32,319 --> 01:33:35,319
could come out this Saturday and start that process even further.

1901
01:33:36,279 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 3: And even before I let you run and you don't

1902
01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:40,840
work for forty our week. I don't think anybody's doing

1903
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:44,199
that anytime soon on the campus or for that matter,

1904
01:33:44,319 --> 01:33:45,840
many jobs in your life, but if you were to

1905
01:33:45,960 --> 01:33:48,800
take a forty hour week of yours, how much are

1906
01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:54,520
you spending on nil? The dynamic constantly changes, the constant

1907
01:33:54,640 --> 01:34:00,800
need for additional funds, the legislation, the talk among the administrators,

1908
01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:03,439
that talk among the kids. Where does that in terms

1909
01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,560
of your daily to do list? Where is that focused

1910
01:34:06,640 --> 01:34:06,920
right now.

1911
01:34:08,560 --> 01:34:11,039
Speaker 6: It's it's in my daily to do list. Some days

1912
01:34:11,079 --> 01:34:13,359
it's a little higher than others. I would tell you though,

1913
01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:17,760
NIL is as important today as ever, you know when

1914
01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:21,720
you look at what's going to help us build these

1915
01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:26,119
these rosters, but more than anything else, retain our rosters

1916
01:34:26,159 --> 01:34:28,079
with the good kids, the ones I want to represent

1917
01:34:28,199 --> 01:34:30,640
this program. That's what's going to be most important for

1918
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,800
NIL right now. Is part of my daily conversation, our

1919
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:37,640
daily approach on how we look at things, working with

1920
01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:42,720
linking Koog's, working with others to help really elevate this area.

1921
01:34:43,359 --> 01:34:45,239
Don't get me wrong. You know you said it very

1922
01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:49,520
very well, and there's so many things happening, revenue sharing,

1923
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:52,960
you know, understanding the culture, getting getting to know my

1924
01:34:53,439 --> 01:34:56,720
our department. But really on the top of this is

1925
01:34:57,239 --> 01:35:00,800
how do we put Houston Cougar's to be successful and

1926
01:35:00,840 --> 01:35:04,880
sustained success in NIL and RESSUA are going to be critical.

1927
01:35:05,039 --> 01:35:08,479
So our fans right now understand, I know this is different.

1928
01:35:08,680 --> 01:35:11,479
I know it's not what they're accustomed to. But now

1929
01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,000
that above and beyond money that they've always done for Houston,

1930
01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:18,359
for the for the athletics here, we need them to

1931
01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:20,840
continue to do what they can, because that's going to

1932
01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:22,479
be a big, big part of what we're trying to

1933
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:24,319
do and how we try to succeed in the big

1934
01:35:24,399 --> 01:35:26,119
twelve last.

1935
01:35:25,960 --> 01:35:27,880
Speaker 3: Day, I'm gonna ask you to get your crystal ball out.

1936
01:35:28,359 --> 01:35:30,720
Do you think we're gonna get any sort of regulation

1937
01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:34,640
in the next twelve months, thirty six five years? And

1938
01:35:36,159 --> 01:35:37,520
who's going to be in charge of that? Do you

1939
01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:39,600
think ultimately? Because it sounds like to me, Eddie, the

1940
01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:41,159
NA wants no part of it.

1941
01:35:43,199 --> 01:35:45,079
Speaker 6: I don't know if anybody wants a part of it.

1942
01:35:45,640 --> 01:35:49,439
Everybody knows there has to be something done, and the

1943
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:52,119
problem with that is it's going to have to be

1944
01:35:52,199 --> 01:35:56,279
done at the highest level, and that's legislature and federal

1945
01:35:56,439 --> 01:35:58,880
and to be able so he can have across all

1946
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,560
the states have something that binds us or gives us

1947
01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:05,159
the ability to work within the rules or whatever those

1948
01:36:05,239 --> 01:36:07,479
rules may look like. You asked a good question there.

1949
01:36:07,920 --> 01:36:10,680
Who's going to manage this? I couldn't tell you because

1950
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:13,239
there's so many different parts. People throw out, everything from

1951
01:36:13,319 --> 01:36:16,960
should football be its own standing or should college sports

1952
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:19,520
are all continue as a n NT doa A. The

1953
01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:24,520
fact is right now, our coaches, everybody's looking for just

1954
01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:28,720
direction and we're working to give options. But until there's

1955
01:36:28,760 --> 01:36:33,720
a federal U legislators get in the room and sit

1956
01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:36,239
down and actually finalize this and help us get to

1957
01:36:36,319 --> 01:36:37,800
where and there's people that want to work on this,

1958
01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:42,479
we're gonna We're gonna continue to do to struggle to

1959
01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:44,560
get to the finish line. I really believe it.

1997
01:38:39,159 --> 01:38:42,159
Halloween songs. Fair to say, I would say that's fair.

1998
01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:44,920
I thought you've had at number one for years. I have,

1999
01:38:45,079 --> 01:38:46,920
but I wanted to make sure I was okay. You

2000
01:38:47,079 --> 01:38:50,600
soft pedaled a little, Matt, just getting with your chest baby,

2001
01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:53,439
the best of all time. If I want to maintain

2002
01:38:53,479 --> 01:38:55,279
this drip, I gotta make sure I get some flesh

2003
01:38:55,359 --> 01:38:59,359
or suff Is that your nasal drip? You did that yesterday.

2004
01:39:00,199 --> 01:39:02,079
It was a bad joke, then it was bad joke now.

2005
01:39:02,399 --> 01:39:05,039
But I didn't mention you just did it there. No,

2006
01:39:05,239 --> 01:39:08,520
this is the all time greatest song. Thriller's gotta be there,

2007
01:39:09,159 --> 01:39:14,319
Thriller one. I We'll go Monsmash one, Thriller two, Ghostbusters three.

2008
01:39:15,119 --> 01:39:18,880
That's fine. I'm sticking with Thriller, the greatest of all time,

2009
01:39:19,359 --> 01:39:23,479
all right? Uh Russ. There are some things that mostly

2010
01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:26,159
things about social media and the platform x slash Twitter

2011
01:39:26,319 --> 01:39:31,720
is dangerous and ridiculous, right, Uh? What's dangerous Twitter? I

2012
01:39:31,800 --> 01:39:34,600
mean in general yeah, yeah, but there are some interesting

2013
01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:38,840
websites that I found inquisitive. What do you mean inquisitive?

2014
01:39:38,920 --> 01:39:41,880
You found? Well, well, not about not about Taylor. We

2015
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:44,239
will look get to her. Selection. We don't need to

2016
01:39:44,239 --> 01:39:46,119
get to her. How did she do? I think she

2017
01:39:46,199 --> 01:39:48,159
had Garrett cole over on out's right, he got a

2018
01:39:48,199 --> 01:39:50,760
bunch of them. Taylor does it? And I'm glad you asked.

2019
01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:54,039
Since since you asked, I know you brought it up. Yeah,

2020
01:39:54,039 --> 01:39:56,079
but you're asking, so, I mean the least I could

2021
01:39:56,079 --> 01:40:00,760
do is tell the audience here Taylor tonight has Joe

2022
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:03,920
Mixon scoring a touchdown? Okay, what is that? Even? Money?

2023
01:40:03,960 --> 01:40:07,000
Do you gotta lay cash on that? I'm she doesn't

2024
01:40:07,039 --> 01:40:10,840
put the She's such a fraudster, she doesn't even put

2025
01:40:10,880 --> 01:40:13,960
the odds of it. Taylor cochlan over two and a

2026
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:18,439
half receptions? Cool, Well, what's a reasoning on that? Matt

2027
01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:22,520
Let me finish Will Anderson Junior to record a sack

2028
01:40:26,039 --> 01:40:28,560
and on a separate tech, a separate tweet, she says,

2029
01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:31,279
one hundred dollars to whomever can guess my Halloween costume.

2030
01:40:31,319 --> 01:40:34,880
I truly don't think anyone will get it. I think

2031
01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:41,640
it'd be a security and Exchange Commission investigator. Yess. She

2032
01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:45,560
also has Dalton Schultz longest reception over his sixteen and

2033
01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:50,039
a half yards Dalton Schultze. Yeah, it could happen. Okay, well,

2034
01:40:50,079 --> 01:40:51,960
then give her the credit. Then I'm not giving her

2035
01:40:51,960 --> 01:40:55,279
any credit. It's minus one fifty five anytime TV. So

2036
01:40:55,479 --> 01:40:57,560
let me ask you, this is she gonna go as

2037
01:40:57,680 --> 01:41:03,319
naughty something? I don't know. I don't care, Matt. Okay, Hey,

2038
01:41:03,359 --> 01:41:05,560
what is your I mean, I guess I know there's

2039
01:41:05,600 --> 01:41:09,479
two things you're fixated on. All right, back at it,

2040
01:41:10,520 --> 01:41:13,319
back to what I was originally going to. There is

2041
01:41:13,399 --> 01:41:17,079
a website. There is a Twitter called NFL ref Stats one.

2042
01:41:18,800 --> 01:41:20,319
Not know if it's a legitimate. Let me send me

2043
01:41:20,359 --> 01:41:23,600
followers a day, NFL ref Stats one that sounds made

2044
01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:29,000
up nine followers. It's not great. It's verified. Yeah, anything

2045
01:41:31,079 --> 01:41:34,840
are verified. Sean Hockeley is the referee for tonight's game. Okay,

2046
01:41:35,520 --> 01:41:40,960
that of course is ed Gunn's hockey son sixteen. This

2047
01:41:41,039 --> 01:41:43,960
is NFL ref Stats says sixty nine percent of their

2048
01:41:44,039 --> 01:41:50,880
penalties are called on the offense. Okay, and of those,

2049
01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:54,319
fifty three percent of those penalties are called on two

2050
01:41:54,359 --> 01:42:02,920
different things. False starts and offensive holdings is two favorite things.

2051
01:42:03,199 --> 01:42:04,359
Speaker 1: We are screwed.

2052
01:42:06,079 --> 01:42:08,159
Speaker 3: Well, if he doesn't start falsely, they can't call it.

2053
01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:12,199
They are also number two in illegal formation in rough

2054
01:42:12,239 --> 01:42:15,760
in the passer, rough in the passer. Well, it could

2055
01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:17,960
be good because he because you see de Shaw could

2056
01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:20,920
get get hit a lot. The last Sean Hockeley game

2057
01:42:21,079 --> 01:42:26,680
he called for the Texans Week three, Texans at Vikings, Minnesota,

2058
01:42:26,720 --> 01:42:29,439
one thirty four to seven. Well, I have some great news.

2059
01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:31,960
If the Texans don't commit penalties, they won't be called.

2060
01:42:32,520 --> 01:42:36,039
There were five false starts in that Minnesota game, two

2061
01:42:36,119 --> 01:42:39,439
illegal formations and are rough in the passer. Well, how

2062
01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:43,279
dessered were they? We need to contextualize this. I'm just

2063
01:42:43,359 --> 01:42:46,560
press without context, are just useless.

2064
01:42:46,640 --> 01:42:46,920
Speaker 6: All right.

2065
01:42:47,319 --> 01:42:50,119
Speaker 3: By the way, Texans and ed Hockey or Sean Hockeley

2066
01:42:50,239 --> 01:42:51,479
games are one and four.

2067
01:42:53,239 --> 01:42:53,920
Speaker 6: So there you have it.

2068
01:42:55,039 --> 01:42:59,319
Speaker 3: Whatever. I don't care about that. Mute that account, all right,

2069
01:42:59,680 --> 01:43:01,199
you know, I'm like any that's stuff. I didn't think

2070
01:43:01,199 --> 01:43:02,560
it was bad. I don't think it was. I mean,

2071
01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:04,720
it's fine, but like I said, it doesn't have any context.

2072
01:43:05,359 --> 01:43:07,560
If you show me video of all the rough and

2073
01:43:07,640 --> 01:43:09,760
the passers, and they were all deserved and who cares.

2074
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,119
They can call nine in one game and one in

2075
01:43:12,199 --> 01:43:14,800
the next and just be it doesn't matter if they

2076
01:43:14,840 --> 01:43:17,720
were deserved, if they were the right calls. Maybe maybe

2077
01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:20,399
this NFL rep's one guy is an a as an

2078
01:43:20,399 --> 01:43:22,640
attorney or a doctor and he's got a full patient

2079
01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:23,880
list and he doesn't have time for this.

2080
01:43:25,279 --> 01:43:25,960
Speaker 6: Clearly he does.

2081
01:43:26,039 --> 01:43:28,199
Speaker 3: He just put those stats together that you mentioned, but

2082
01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:30,720
you need to contextualize them. Are they bad calls or

2083
01:43:30,720 --> 01:43:32,840
are they the right calls? Are they a team that

2084
01:43:32,920 --> 01:43:35,880
commits us one contextualized and see if you gets some results. Well,

2085
01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:37,920
I'm gonna guess that all the reffing crews that were

2086
01:43:37,960 --> 01:43:40,039
calling larry My Tunsil games in the first three weeks

2087
01:43:40,079 --> 01:43:41,840
called a lot of false starts. So it doesn't mean

2088
01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:43,319
they're gonna call a lot in their next game. This

2089
01:43:43,399 --> 01:43:45,560
just means Larry Tunseel's not there. Well, I think that

2090
01:43:45,880 --> 01:43:47,600
I think you're just taking it at face back. Maybe

2091
01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:49,439
you know what what part of information you always tell me,

2092
01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:53,359
what part of u uh metrics hurt you here that

2093
01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:55,880
was didn't hurt me. I'm just asking, Yeah, you feel

2094
01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:57,880
like you've been hurt. Where to touch you? Let's go

2095
01:43:58,039 --> 01:44:00,199
to a Dave in spring at two twenty five on

2096
01:44:00,239 --> 01:44:01,119
seven One High Dave.

2097
01:44:02,359 --> 01:44:05,720
Speaker 10: Hey, guys, I enjoyed the interview with the A D

2098
01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:08,199
there in Nunya. Seems like a good guy and everything.

2099
01:44:08,279 --> 01:44:10,600
But I gotta tell you when when you asked him

2100
01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:13,479
the question about, you know, how does the mess that

2101
01:44:13,680 --> 01:44:16,800
is college athletics, you know, with NIL and portal and

2102
01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:19,960
the whole wild Wild West system they have right now,

2103
01:44:20,039 --> 01:44:22,159
how does it get sorted out? And he says, oh,

2104
01:44:22,199 --> 01:44:25,680
it's going to take legislation. It's going to take federal legislation.

2105
01:44:26,119 --> 01:44:27,800
And I'm thinking to myself, I don't know if he's

2106
01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:30,399
looked up there in d C, but this is not

2107
01:44:30,520 --> 01:44:33,159
a group that is particularly good at coming up with

2108
01:44:33,319 --> 01:44:38,479
solutions to complicated problems. And I just, I mean, can't

2109
01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:41,359
these guys figure it out themselves, the presidents, the chancellors,

2110
01:44:41,399 --> 01:44:45,000
the ads get together and figure out put some rules

2111
01:44:45,039 --> 01:44:46,760
in place. Why would they want to hand that off

2112
01:44:47,119 --> 01:44:50,199
to the to federal officials. It should be something that

2113
01:44:50,319 --> 01:44:50,600
they do.

2114
01:44:51,119 --> 01:44:53,880
Speaker 3: I mean, you know why, And I'm a why, Well,

2115
01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:58,760
here's my here's my I think semi educated answer. Because

2116
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:01,960
you have one hundred and fifty football programs in three

2117
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:05,880
hundred and something schools that all have different agendas. Why

2118
01:45:06,079 --> 01:45:08,800
do you think the universe? Do you think Alabama has

2119
01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:11,600
any interest in making sure that NIL is fair and

2120
01:45:11,680 --> 01:45:18,000
balanced for UTEP or for Boise State or for Villanova.

2121
01:45:18,159 --> 01:45:18,199
Speaker 5: No.

2122
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:21,920
Speaker 3: No, you have different agendas for the power conference schools

2123
01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:24,680
and the power programs than you would for the little's

2124
01:45:24,920 --> 01:45:27,439
schools that are just trying to compete. So that's the

2125
01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:32,760
reason why I think athletic directors and conference officials believe

2126
01:45:32,880 --> 01:45:34,960
that ultimately it's going to have to take some control

2127
01:45:35,039 --> 01:45:37,319
by the government because nobody's going to be on the

2128
01:45:37,359 --> 01:45:40,640
same page on this. NFL owners there are thirty two

2129
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:44,279
of them, all have the same agenda generally speaking. NBA

2130
01:45:44,399 --> 01:45:47,680
owners baseball the same way. You've got the habs and

2131
01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:50,600
the have nots that are so abundant throughout college sports.

2132
01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:52,600
How are they all supposed to agree on this on

2133
01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:53,439
a central theme?

2134
01:45:54,760 --> 01:45:57,760
Speaker 10: Well, Matt, do you think Chuck Schumer and Ted Cruz

2135
01:45:57,800 --> 01:45:59,239
are going to be able to figure this out?

2136
01:46:00,319 --> 01:46:02,479
Speaker 3: I don't trust government, So you're asking the wrong person.

2137
01:46:02,600 --> 01:46:06,119
I'm just telling you that if if you're expecting that

2138
01:46:06,279 --> 01:46:10,479
the athletic director and the commissioner of the SEC gives

2139
01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:14,119
two craps about how the Big Sky Conference compensates their players.

2140
01:46:14,199 --> 01:46:16,039
Your nuts, because they're just they just don't well.

2141
01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:19,039
Speaker 10: One last comment on this. I mean, yeah, when the

2142
01:46:19,199 --> 01:46:21,600
MC two A hired Charlie Baker.

2143
01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:24,000
Speaker 6: To be the head, I think he's still in that job,

2144
01:46:24,119 --> 01:46:24,520
right he is.

2145
01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:27,199
Speaker 10: He is a former. He was a governor of Massachusetts,

2146
01:46:27,199 --> 01:46:28,880
and I'll tell you my mother lived up there. I

2147
01:46:28,960 --> 01:46:31,640
spent time up there. He was very well respected. He's

2148
01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:34,079
considered a smart guy. He works across the aisle.

2149
01:46:34,199 --> 01:46:34,560
Speaker 6: All of that.

2150
01:46:35,079 --> 01:46:38,119
Speaker 10: I'm disappointed that Charlie Baker has Maybe it's an indication

2151
01:46:38,239 --> 01:46:40,119
that nothing is ever going to be able to get

2152
01:46:40,199 --> 01:46:42,880
worked out, but I thought he would by now have

2153
01:46:43,039 --> 01:46:46,000
started to make some inroads here. Are you disappointed that

2154
01:46:46,239 --> 01:46:48,119
not enough is happening with the n C two A,

2155
01:46:48,279 --> 01:46:50,079
or is the n C two A just you know,

2156
01:46:50,960 --> 01:46:52,399
you know, pointless at this point.

2157
01:46:54,439 --> 01:46:56,319
Speaker 3: And you've brought up a good point. The nc DOULA

2158
01:46:56,520 --> 01:47:01,159
is completely pointless, Rossie. We've talked about this for months now.

2159
01:47:01,319 --> 01:47:04,199
The NCBLA has made it abundantly clear they have zero

2160
01:47:04,399 --> 01:47:08,319
interest in helping this situation. They want their hands free

2161
01:47:08,359 --> 01:47:11,920
of this completely. And why is that? Because they want

2162
01:47:11,960 --> 01:47:15,920
to maintain their amateur status. Correct, They want to maintain

2163
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:18,800
their amateur status, which means they do not have to

2164
01:47:18,880 --> 01:47:23,680
pay taxes. Last year they got according to this ESPN article,

2165
01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:28,800
I just pulled up over a billion dollars in revenues

2166
01:47:29,279 --> 01:47:32,880
last year, with half of that being distributed to the schools,

2167
01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:34,760
and god knows what happens to the other half. I

2168
01:47:34,800 --> 01:47:37,840
don't even know one pot excuse me. One point three

2169
01:47:38,079 --> 01:47:41,520
billion dollars in revenue for twenty twenty two to twenty

2170
01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:47,239
twenty three season, nine hundred and forty five million of

2171
01:47:47,319 --> 01:47:50,359
that coming from media rights and marketing deals tied to

2172
01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:54,560
championship events. And remember, it's not the schools directly paying

2173
01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:58,600
the players. It's Eddie Nunez and other athletic directors saying,

2174
01:47:59,039 --> 01:48:01,520
who do we have out there that we can ship

2175
01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:05,359
to our collective and then the collective can deal directly

2176
01:48:05,399 --> 01:48:07,640
with the athletes. So that's one point three billion in

2177
01:48:07,800 --> 01:48:10,960
revenue tax free. Correct? Do I have that right? Yes?

2178
01:48:13,439 --> 01:48:16,600
They want to keep it that way, and the NBA

2179
01:48:16,720 --> 01:48:19,039
wants no part of it. Real quick, before we get

2180
01:48:19,079 --> 01:48:21,279
to the rotten five. Anthony and deer Park are two

2181
01:48:21,319 --> 01:48:22,680
twenty nine, Hi, Anthony.

2182
01:48:23,520 --> 01:48:25,279
Speaker 10: Hey guys, Hey Ross.

2183
01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:28,319
Speaker 9: First of all, I couldn't comment yesterday because I was

2184
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:32,640
in Twitter jail, but I could not believe agree more.

2185
01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:38,560
The political ads are exhausting on x and I can't

2186
01:48:38,600 --> 01:48:39,880
wait for Tuesday.

2187
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:40,039
Speaker 6: To be done.

2188
01:48:40,720 --> 01:48:42,439
Speaker 3: Yes, get here fast enough.

2189
01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:46,680
Speaker 9: So and I was I was in a ex jail

2190
01:48:46,840 --> 01:48:49,159
for calling a Yankee Santa bitch, So it was for

2191
01:48:49,279 --> 01:48:55,199
a good cause. No, But so the Texans need somebody

2192
01:48:55,319 --> 01:48:59,640
to step up tonight in their wide receiver room, and

2193
01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:02,560
I kind of got a gut feeling on that that

2194
01:49:02,680 --> 01:49:06,479
it's going to be Texans legend Xavier Hutchinson. I think

2195
01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:09,319
he's gonna go for at least eight catches for at

2196
01:49:09,399 --> 01:49:10,359
least one hundred yards.

2197
01:49:10,399 --> 01:49:15,479
Speaker 10: Oh wow, look here's my thing. Look, here's my thing.

2198
01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:16,199
Hear me out.

2199
01:49:17,119 --> 01:49:20,600
Speaker 9: Last year, CJ Shrouds showed us the ability to elevate

2200
01:49:21,119 --> 01:49:24,279
any group of wide receivers. And I think that if

2201
01:49:24,319 --> 01:49:27,920
he's got any sort of protection, he's done it all season.

2202
01:49:29,159 --> 01:49:32,920
He's been under pressure and he's bailed this offense out

2203
01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:37,239
all season long. So I think that CJ has the

2204
01:49:37,319 --> 01:49:41,279
ability to elevate any group of receivers that he's playing

2205
01:49:41,359 --> 01:49:45,520
with now. Granted, losing our big our main guys hurts.

2206
01:49:46,079 --> 01:49:48,760
But I do think that Xavier Hutchinson will step up

2207
01:49:48,800 --> 01:49:50,239
and have a big game for the Texans.

2208
01:49:50,680 --> 01:49:52,640
Speaker 3: All right, you have to call Anthony. You have to

2209
01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:55,800
call Ross tomorrow for sure on that. Oh you're out tomorrow,

2210
01:49:55,840 --> 01:49:59,680
I forget yes. And the reason why I'm out tomorrow

2211
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:02,840
it's because my son's getting his ring dunk a ceremony

2212
01:50:02,880 --> 01:50:04,880
at A and M. So I can't miss that ring

2213
01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:07,439
dunk ceremonies not officially sanctioned. You can do that whenever

2214
01:50:07,479 --> 01:50:09,560
you want. When's he doing it tomorrow?

2215
01:50:10,199 --> 01:50:10,279
Speaker 6: Oh?

2216
01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:14,560
Speaker 3: He can't wait till Saturday. No, they he has a

2217
01:50:14,640 --> 01:50:17,119
specific time and day to pick it up and do

2218
01:50:17,199 --> 01:50:19,760
all the dunking, and he's getting pictures done a Kyle Field.

2219
01:50:19,800 --> 01:50:22,119
It's a week. It's a Russie. It's a big deal, sang.

2220
01:50:23,359 --> 01:50:27,319
Don't you cackle back there? Do anything? You cackled? They

2221
01:50:27,359 --> 01:50:31,159
can't zoom yet, Aggie fans call Ross tomorrow and tell

2222
01:50:31,199 --> 01:50:32,079
them how big of a day it is.

2223
01:50:32,159 --> 01:50:33,239
Speaker 1: You know what's a big deal?

2224
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:38,640
Speaker 3: All right? Geez for drunken degenerates to dunk their ring

2225
01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:41,359
and a picture of beer. Cool. If you think I

2226
01:50:41,439 --> 01:50:43,319

01:50:50,600 --> 01:50:54,199
I know you can go. I'm going. I have been.

2257
01:52:24,600 --> 01:52:26,920

was around ninety eight nine. I would have to say

2261
01:52:36,279 --> 01:52:38,439
one of the ten funniest skits maybe of all time

2262
01:52:38,520 --> 01:52:41,600
in SNL. That's one of my faves. You can find

2263
01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:44,399
the best of Will Ferrell. I think it's on Peacock.

2264
01:52:45,800 --> 01:52:49,439
It's on the What Peacock. It's an app run by NBC,

2265
01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:57,239
who of course owns SNL. Okay, we undred thousand. Could

2267
01:53:00,039 --> 01:53:02,840
of all time? I thought we did that. No, we

01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:07,439
did recurring characters SNL recurring characters. Maybe, yeah, what did

2269
01:53:07,479 --> 01:53:10,000
we we did something like that? All right, we haven't

2270
01:53:10,000 --> 01:53:11,720
done it. Have we done a Fantasy five this year?

2271
01:53:12,079 --> 01:53:14,399
I know it's been too long. I don't like Well,

2281
01:53:51,279 --> 01:53:53,199
just kidding. It's time for Ross's Rude.

2282
01:53:55,359 --> 01:54:04,159
Speaker 1: They've gone there. They draw flies Witz Ross's Rotten five.

2283
01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:10,199
Speaker 3: This don't smell quite right. All right, let's get to it.

2284
01:54:10,640 --> 01:54:13,359
On the Rotten five. There was a team that people

2285
01:54:13,399 --> 01:54:16,920
were clamoring for last week. They appear later on this list,

2286
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:19,880
but let's start with number five. Last week they were

2287
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:22,039
number one, But holy smokes, who would have thought you

2288
01:54:22,119 --> 01:54:24,479
get rid of one of the worst quarterbacks in the league,

2289
01:54:24,880 --> 01:54:29,239
although via injury the team gets better. The Cleveland Browns

2290
01:54:29,359 --> 01:54:31,840
going down with the sinking ship that was Deshaun Watson,

2291
01:54:31,880 --> 01:54:36,359
but the football gods had other plans, watson season ending injury,

2292
01:54:36,520 --> 01:54:40,479
opening the window for the return of the Jameis Winston experience,

2293
01:54:40,560 --> 01:54:43,079
and well, one weekend, the result's pretty good. The Brown's

2294
01:54:43,119 --> 01:54:46,079
got a clutch touchdown and a clutch stop to take

2295
01:54:46,119 --> 01:54:48,159
down one of the best teams in the NFL in

2296
01:54:48,239 --> 01:54:51,920
the Baltimore Ravens. So things trending upward for the Browns.

2297
01:54:52,039 --> 01:54:54,960
Congratulations to you. You climbed out of the number one spot,

2298
01:54:55,000 --> 01:54:57,239
but you're still bad and we're still gonna put you

2299
01:54:57,560 --> 01:55:00,960
at number five as the fifth worst team in the NFL.

2300
01:55:01,720 --> 01:55:05,000
You are a factory of sadness. Let's keep it moving

2301
01:55:05,039 --> 01:55:08,279
to number four. Congratulations to the New York excuse me,

2302
01:55:08,399 --> 01:55:11,399
New England, the Patriots. You won a game. You also

2303
01:55:11,560 --> 01:55:14,119
made NFL history along the way. You could say they

2304
01:55:14,159 --> 01:55:17,760
didn't deserve it, because in NFL history, teams were zero

2305
01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:21,520
and seven point fifty when allowing twenty or more points,

2306
01:55:21,760 --> 01:55:24,159
not forcing a turnover, and gaining under two hundred and

2307
01:55:24,199 --> 01:55:28,800
fifty yards. Somehow, the Patriots made that happen and got

2308
01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:31,039
the win. Well, that somehow is the New York Jets,

2309
01:55:31,279 --> 01:55:33,960
who were almost on this list. Patriots pulled off that

2310
01:55:34,119 --> 01:55:37,279
unprecedented miracle to win their second game of the year,

2311
01:55:37,359 --> 01:55:39,880
but they looked bad doing it. Maybe the future can

2312
01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:42,439
be bright, but they're still pretty bad as of right now.

2313
01:55:42,520 --> 01:55:46,039
The Patriots the fourth worst team in the NFL. I'm

2314
01:55:46,079 --> 01:55:48,119
the coach. I think it's best for the football team.

2315
01:55:49,760 --> 01:55:51,640
I don't know why we can't understand that. You know,

2316
01:55:51,680 --> 01:55:54,479
you're not the coach. Bill, You're out. You're not coaching

2317
01:55:54,520 --> 01:55:57,199
them anymore, all right. The Las Vegas Raiders, yes they're

2318
01:55:57,239 --> 01:55:59,439
on the list. They started out the season good enough,

2319
01:55:59,479 --> 01:56:01,920
splitting their first four games. That's why they haven't appeared here,

2320
01:56:01,960 --> 01:56:04,920
including a win over the Baltimore Ravens. Since then, things

2321
01:56:05,000 --> 01:56:09,239
have been horrible. They bitched Garterer Minshew, an O'Connell came in,

2322
01:56:09,880 --> 01:56:12,840
got hurt. They went back to Gardner minshew, all while

2323
01:56:12,920 --> 01:56:16,159
losing four in a row Along the way. Raiders twenty

2324
01:56:16,239 --> 01:56:19,119
sixth in the league in points per game, twenty seventh

2325
01:56:19,399 --> 01:56:22,960
in points allowed per game. Good offenses in the Bengals

2326
01:56:23,039 --> 01:56:25,600
and Dolphins next up in the next couple of weeks,

2327
01:56:25,600 --> 01:56:27,680
So I think they're gonna lose some more games. Things

2328
01:56:27,760 --> 01:56:30,239
getting worse before they get better. For the Raiders, the

2329
01:56:30,319 --> 01:56:35,479
third worst team in the NFL, all right, thanks Boom,

2330
01:56:35,760 --> 01:56:38,880
all right, Titans, my god, you're terrible. Setting records this

2331
01:56:39,000 --> 01:56:41,199
year and none of them are good. This past week,

2332
01:56:41,279 --> 01:56:46,000
they lost the Lions fifty two to fourteen. They became

2333
01:56:46,079 --> 01:56:49,560
the first team in NFL history to allow fifty points

2334
01:56:49,600 --> 01:56:52,079
to the other team while the other team threw for

2335
01:56:52,279 --> 01:56:54,760
under one hundred yards. How do you even do that? Well,

2336
01:56:54,840 --> 01:56:57,479
you turn the ball over and over and over and

2337
01:56:57,640 --> 01:57:00,560
over again in your own territory, and that's gonna happen.

2338
01:57:00,840 --> 01:57:04,239
They greatly outgained the Lions, but lost by almost forty points.

2339
01:57:04,319 --> 01:57:07,640
Mason Rudolph will Levis doesn't matter. The Titans are terrible.

2340
01:57:07,880 --> 01:57:10,840
They're a mess. They've lost six of their seven games

2341
01:57:10,920 --> 01:57:13,319
this year. Do have a winnable one coming up against

2342
01:57:13,319 --> 01:57:16,960
the New England Patriots that will shift the frotten five

2343
01:57:17,000 --> 01:57:19,600
for next week, But right now, absolute worst, A second

2344
01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:21,720
wor excuse me, second worst team in the NFL, the

2345
01:57:21,800 --> 01:57:22,600
Tennessee Titans.

2346
01:57:22,960 --> 01:57:26,199
Speaker 16: Guy, we got to go get Vince Young.

2347
01:57:26,279 --> 01:57:28,840
Speaker 3: He's retired, buddy. All right, let's welcome back to the

2348
01:57:28,920 --> 01:57:32,000
starting lineup, Bryce Young, and welcome back to the number

2349
01:57:32,079 --> 01:57:35,920
one spot the carol lineup. Panthers. Panthers making the right

2350
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:39,119
move inserting their young, yes pun intended quarterback into the

2351
01:57:39,159 --> 01:57:42,159
starting lineup, but again, doesn't matter. They're gonna have one

2352
01:57:42,159 --> 01:57:44,079
of the worst defenses in the history of the league.

2353
01:57:44,279 --> 01:57:45,119
Speaker 1: Things are so bad.

2354
01:57:45,439 --> 01:57:48,000
Speaker 3: They gave up twenty eight points to the Broncos and

2355
01:57:48,119 --> 01:57:50,199
that's a good thing. That's a fewest they'd give it

2356
01:57:50,279 --> 01:57:53,560
up in five weeks. Off excuse me, offensive, well, offense

2357
01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:56,720
is bad. Defense is terrible. They're already waving the white flag.

2358
01:57:56,760 --> 01:57:59,760
They traded away Deontay Johnson, their hopeful star running back

2359
01:57:59,800 --> 01:58:02,720
John Unaton Brooks has been practicing this week, but Dave

2360
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:04,800
Canal is the head coach, saying we might even be

2361
01:58:04,880 --> 01:58:07,159
playing this year. I mean, what is the point. The

2362
01:58:07,279 --> 01:58:10,880
season is a complete wash. The Carolina Panthers the absolute

2363
01:58:10,960 --> 01:58:12,520
worst team in the NFL.

2364
01:58:13,039 --> 01:58:15,520
Speaker 4: I've seen team suck before, but they would suck you

2365
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:17,079
a bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

2366
01:58:18,199 --> 01:58:20,239
Speaker 3: And there's your run in five I need a ruling.

2367
01:58:20,359 --> 01:58:24,720

02:00:56,399 --> 02:01:00,279
Speaker 3: What Small Broadcasting Notes Sports RV Bob Costas says he

2427
02:01:00,279 --> 02:01:04,239
will no longer call baseball games. He's done getting dung.

2428
02:01:04,319 --> 02:01:04,920
The witch is dead.

2429
02:01:07,960 --> 02:01:08,079
Speaker 2: Uh.

2430
02:01:09,359 --> 02:01:14,640
Speaker 3: Really excellent game caller seventies, eighties, nineties, two thousands he

2431
02:01:14,760 --> 02:01:16,680
started to slip in the last decade, and I thought

2432
02:01:16,760 --> 02:01:20,560
he was atrocious for the Yankees and Royal Series South

2433
02:01:20,600 --> 02:01:26,520
of America. He's always been a pompous asked, there's no

2434
02:01:26,640 --> 02:01:29,119
question about that. Doesn't mean he's talented, doesn't mean he's great,

2435
02:01:30,279 --> 02:01:33,960
but he's just been a truly unlikable figure. And now

2436
02:01:34,399 --> 02:01:38,600
he got Uh. He probably was told he's not coming back,

2437
02:01:38,640 --> 02:01:40,279
and they just said, hey, why don't you announce you're

2438
02:01:40,319 --> 02:01:42,920
retiring from game Cocot going to work for MLB network.

2439
02:01:42,960 --> 02:01:47,319
But he's not gonna do any playoff games. So there

2440
02:01:47,359 --> 02:01:49,600
